Self-repairs, that is revisions of speech that speakers themselves initiate and complete (Salonen and Laakso in J Child Lang 36:859, 2009. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0305000908009240 ), are frequently used to observe the cognitive and linguistic processes underlying second language (L2) speech production. Previous research has shown that factors such as L2 proficiency, attentional control and native language (L1) self-repair behavior interact with L2 self-repair behavior. To our knowledge, however, no research has examined how these three factors interact within a cohort of L2 speakers. As such, the present study examined the proficiency scores, attentional control scores and L2 and L1 self-repair frequency data of 58 adult L2 English speakers of various proficiency levels. Regression results showed that while proficiency was not a significant predictor of L2 self-repair behavior, attentional control and L1 repair frequency together explained 40% of the variance. Results suggest that L2 self-repair behavior may be more closely linked to stable cognitive and personality traits than to L2 proficiency.
自我修正，即说话者自己发起并完成的言语修正（萨洛宁和拉克索，《儿童语言杂志》36:859，2009年。https://doi.org/10.1017/s0305000908009240 ），经常被用于观察第二语言（L2）言语产生背后的认知和语言过程。先前的研究表明，诸如L2熟练程度、注意力控制和母语（L1）自我修正行为等因素会与L2自我修正行为相互作用。然而，据我们所知，尚无研究考察这三个因素在一群L2使用者中是如何相互作用的。因此，本研究考察了58名不同熟练程度的成年L2英语使用者的熟练程度分数、注意力控制分数以及L2和L1自我修正频率数据。回归结果显示，虽然熟练程度并非L2自我修正行为的显著预测指标，但注意力控制和L1修正频率共同解释了40%的方差。结果表明，L2自我修正行为可能与稳定的认知和人格特质联系更为紧密，而非与L2熟练程度相关。
