Mon
programme de recherche se concentre sur la phonologie/phonétique et
l’acquisition d’une langue seconde, plus particulièrement sur l’accent
et la prosodie, et sur la façon dont les patrons subtils du langage
peuvent être acquis par les locuteurs natifs et les apprenants d’une
langue seconde. Ma thèse de doctorat porte sur
l’impact du poids des syllabes sur l’accent des mots et sur la façon
dont les locuteurs natifs acquièrent et généralisent les patrons
accentuels présents dans le lexique de leur langue.
Je suis l’auteur de Data visualization and analysis in second language research, une introduction aux méthodes statistiques appliquées aux données d’acquisition d’une langue seconde avec . Les méthodes quantitatives jouent un rôle central dans mon programme de recherche, étant donné mon intérêt pour les patrons linguistiques subtils.
Je participe également à deux projets en tant que membre du Second Language Acquisition Group du Département de linguistique à l’Université McGill : a) l’effacement des voyelles hautes en français québécois (avec Natália B. Guzzo et Heather Goad); b) l’influence prosodique dans l’interprétation des pronoms en italien (avec Heather Goad, Lydia White, et des collègues).
