The conference invites submissions of papers in any area of L1 and L2 acquisition, (bimodal) bilingual acquisition, language processing, and cognitive neuroscience of language, among others, as well as theoretical studies (in phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, or pragmatics) that have implications for “Plato’s Problem” (“How can we gain a rich linguistic system given our fragmentary and impoverished experience?”).
There will be a special session on ‘Perspectives on Language Acquisition’. In light of the special session, acquisition studies from different paradigms are especially encouraged.
Besides oral presentations, ICTEAP-2 will feature a poster session. Abstracts for both oral and poster presentations should be written in English and limited to 500 words, with one extra page to include examples, references, tables and figures. Abstracts should be anonymous and in standard 12-point Times New Roman font, with margins of 1 inch. No more than one single-authored and one co-authored abstract will be considered. Finally, all abstracts will undergo a blind review process.
Abstracts should be submitted in PDF format via the EasyChair system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icteap2
