But there was evidence that a high level of frequency of some morphemes (e.g.<\/p>\n<p>-ing) resulted in subsequent overuse by the students. Frequency may, therefore have a delayed effect. overlap between frequency, structural complexity and cognitive learning diffi\u00ac culty. The correlation between input and acquisition, therefore, is difficult to interpret, because other factors are confounded. It may not be frequency per se that counts but structural complexity. The hypothesis is descriptive rather than explanatory.<\/p>\n<p>It is of value from the point of view of language pedagogy, however, in that it highlights the need to consider instruction in terms of the total input to which the learner is exposed. The Input Hypothesis The other two hypotheses which are reception-based are explanatory in nature. They offer much more powerful accounts of how classroom input and interaction contribute to L2 acquisition.<\/p>\n<p>The input hypothesis has already been briefly considered as part of the Monitor Model in chapter 3. It warrants a more detailed consideration, however. Its importance is reflected in the fact that Krashen has devoted a whole book to it (Krashen, 1985) and in the attention it has attracted from language teachers.<\/p>\n<p>A detailed description of Krashen\u2019s claims about the role of input follows, together with a review of the research which has been used to support them. Finally, the hypothesis is evaluated. Description Krashen provides a number of accounts of the input hypothesis, the most extensive of which is to be found in Krashen (1985). The hypothesis takes the form of a principal statement and two corollaries (see Table 5.2).<\/p>\n<p>Long (1983a) makes some equally strong claims: 1 Access to comprehensible input is characteristic of all cases of successful acquisition, first or second. 2 Greater quantities of comprehensible input result in better (or at least faster) acquisition.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>.. deal with key topics within the main branches of ianv,-<age studies \u2014 initially in the fields of foreign language teazling and learning, child language acquisition with clinical or remedial language studies. The series will provide students with a research perspective in a particular topic, at the same time containing an original slant which will make each volume a genuine contribution to the development of ideas in the subject.<\/p>\n<p>Series List Communication Strategies in Second Language Acquisition Ellen Bialystok Computers and Written Texts Christopher S.
