Recent theoretical research into SLA and SL pedagogy has shown renewed interest in the role of cognitive variables such as attention, short, working, and long term memory. This volume first examines the theoretical foundations of research into the cognitive processes underlying SLA and then describes various implications for pedagogically oriented research and for SL classroom practice. This book's blend of research from the cognitive sciences and applied linguistics make it an exellent introduction to applied linguists and language teachers interested in the psycholinguistic processes underlying SLA.''
