Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Linguistics
  • Vocabulary
  • Artificial intelligence

His primary scientific interests are in Linguistics, Vocabulary, Vocabulary development, Second-language acquisition and Cognitive psychology. In general Linguistics, his work in Reading, Reading comprehension and Lexis is often linked to Computer software linking many areas of study. His Reading comprehension research includes elements of Root and Artificial intelligence.

His primary area of study in Vocabulary is in the field of Productive Vocabulary. His work carried out in the field of Vocabulary development brings together such families of science as Language acquisition and Language education. His research investigates the connection with Second-language acquisition and areas like Language proficiency which intersect with concerns in Verb, Collocation, Context effect and Noun.

His most cited work include:

  • INCIDENTAL VOCABULARY ACQUISITION IN A SECOND LANGUAGE: THE CONSTRUCT OF TASK-INDUCED INVOLVEMENT (743 citations)
  • Vocabulary size and use: lexical richness in L2 written production (724 citations)
  • SOME EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE FOR THE INVOLVEMENT LOAD HYPOTHESIS IN VOCABULARY ACQUISITION (465 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Linguistics, Vocabulary, Vocabulary development, Reading comprehension and Second-language acquisition. The various areas that Batia Laufer examines in his Linguistics study include Artificial intelligence and Natural language processing. The study incorporates disciplines such as Test, Cognitive psychology, Recall, Language education and Language proficiency in addition to Vocabulary.

His studies deal with areas such as Language acquisition, Active recall and Memorization as well as Vocabulary development. He studied Reading comprehension and Comprehension that intersect with Grammar. The concepts of his Second-language acquisition study are interwoven with issues in Applied linguistics and Lexicon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Linguistics (79.17%)
  • Vocabulary (54.17%)
  • Vocabulary development (33.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Linguistics (79.17%)
  • Vocabulary (54.17%)
  • Recall (9.72%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Linguistics, Vocabulary, Recall, Second language and Hebrew are his primary areas of study. His work is dedicated to discovering how Linguistics, Test are connected with Word and other disciplines. His Vocabulary development research extends to Recall, which is thematically connected.

His Vocabulary development research incorporates elements of Language proficiency and Word recognition. His Word recognition study incorporates themes from Cognitive psychology, Reading comprehension and Comprehension. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Loanword under Hebrew, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Test score, Word meaning and English vocabulary.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • What Type of Vocabulary Knowledge Predicts Reading Comprehension: Word Meaning Recall or Word Meaning Recognition? (18 citations)
  • Loanwords and Vocabulary Size Test Scores: A Case of Different Estimates for Different L1 Learners. (18 citations)
  • From word parts to full texts: Searching for effective methods of vocabulary learning: (13 citations)
