Chapter 2
Towards an integrated model of grammatical encoding and decoding in SLA
In this chapter, I consider the interface between production and comprehension
in second language acquisition (SLA). I argue that the two processes rely on (partially)
shared resources and propose an integrated encoding-decoding model of SLA. The core of the
model is a single syntactic processor underlying both second language (L2) grammatical
encoding and decoding. The model also includes a means of accounting for the interaction of
shared grammatical resources and key semantic aspects such as lexical semantics and event
probability on the comprehension process. My claims are tested in an empirical study
focussing on the L2 acquisition of English passive constructions by 24 learners with an L1
German background at different stages of L2 acquisition. The results of the data analysis
provide support for the notion of a single syntactic processor in L2 acquisition.
