一般的第二语言熟练程度继续引起研究人员的兴趣。本研究调查了160名以英语为外语的日本大学生的一般第二语言水平（SLP）与特定认知能力（即外语能力倾向、言语智力和推理能力）之间的关系。结构方程模型否定了一般SLP构成传统上所谓的一般智力的中心的假设。然而，它表明SLP和其他认知能力之间有很强的关系。该研究还分析了实际文本接受者提供的协议数据，揭示了SLP与问题解决过程中的评估，计划和执行能力有关。
General second language proficiency continues to intrigue researchers. This study investigates the relationships between general second language proficiency (SLP) and selected cognitive abilities (i.e. foreign language aptitude, verbal intelligence, and reasoning) in 160 EFL Japanese college students. Structural equation modeling disconfirmed the hypothesis that general SLP forms the center of what has traditionally been called general intelligence. However, it suggests a strong relation between SLP and other cognitive abilities. The study also analyzed the protocol data provided by the actual text takers, revealing that SLP is related to the ability to assess, plan, and execute in problem solving processes.
