The purpose of the workshop is to bring together researchers from around the world who work on heritage language (HL) acquisition and processing from any theoretical linguistic perspective. All work pertaining to HL development in childhood, the documentation and explanation of HL ultimate attainment in adulthood and HL processing at any age is welcome. Given that the leitmotifs of the workshop are innovations in (i) methodology and (ii) domains of inquiry, we are especially interested in submissions that employ or discuss:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>cross-sectional and\/or longitudinal methodology seeking to chart HL deve\u00adlop\u00admental trajectories over time.<\/li>\n<li>behavioral and\/or neurolinguistic studies of heritage language processing.<\/li>\n<li>methodological issues in heritage language research; e.g. what is and is not appropriate for empirical methodologies with (subgroups of) heritage speakers and why.<\/li>\n<li>the role that L1 attrition plays in heritage language outcomes\u2014whether this be grammatical changes in individual heritage speaker grammars over time or links to changes to input heritage speakers hear as a result of L1 attrition in the generation of speakers who provide their input.<\/li>\n<li>the understudied domains of HL phonological development and ultimate attainment.<\/li>\n<li>the role that variation in input\u2014quantity, quality, variety\u2014plays and how this can be modelled and documented.<\/li>\n<li>foreign language acquisition by heritage speakers.<\/li>\n<li>the role that literacy and formal instruction plays\u2014whether in(re)-learning of the standard variety of the heritage language via formal instruction in adulthood or early access to HL literacy\/formal education in childhood.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><em><span style=\"color: #008080\">Keynote speakers<\/span><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Professor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hf.uio.no\/multiling\/english\/people\/core-group\/jannebj\/\">Janne Bondi Johannessen<\/a> (MultiLing, University of Oslo)<strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Professor <a href=\"http:\/\/mariapolinsky.com\/\">Maria Polinsky<\/a> (University of Maryland)<br \/>\nAssociate professor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.personal.psu.edu\/mtp12\/\">Mike Putnam<\/a> (Penn State University)<br \/>\nProfessor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.essex.ac.uk\/langling\/staff\/profile.aspx?ID=3396\">Monika Schmid<\/a> (University of Essex)<br \/>\nDr. <a href=\"https:\/\/mll.cah.ucf.edu\/staff.php?id=931\">\u00c1lvaro Villegas<\/a> (University of Central Florida)<\/p>\n<p>The deadline for submissions is <strong>June 1st, 2016.<\/strong> You may submit an abstract for consideration as a paper, poster or both.
