Gray First edition. 01 eng 10 LAN009000 01 06 03 00 Researching Generative AI in Applied Linguistics presents a sample of research on how generative AI (GenAI) performs for addressing issues in applied linguistics. The chapters are based on selected presentations from the 2024 Technology for Second Language Learning hybrid conference held at Iowa State University, October 24–26. They are organized into three sections that examine 1) GenAI for language learning, 2) GenAI in language assessment, and 3) the linguistic capabilities of GenAI with respect to variation, subjectivity, and pragmatics in language performance. Together, the chapters illustrate the roles GenAI may play in applied linguistics practice and underscore the need for empirical research on each one. 20 00 Open Access Iowa State University Digital Press 01 Iowa State University Digital Press 04 01 20250827 2025 09 Iowa State University Digital Press 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://www.iastatedigitalpress.com/plugins/books/211/format/131/ 99 01 09 Iowa State University Digital Press 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://www.iastatedigitalpress.com/plugins/books/211/ 99 01 urn:uuid:c05a6f4f-2953-47ec-8d5b-03ff816ae652 03 01 01 urn:uuid:c05a6f4f-2953-47ec-8d5b-03ff816ae652 15 9781958291092 06 10.31274/isudp.2024.153.00 00 EB E107 09 99 hinefuku@iastate.edu 10 Creative Commons License 02 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ 01 01 The DEI Metadata Handbook A Guide to Diverse, Equitable, and Inclusive Description 1 A01 21 0000-0002-9985-8845 H.
