6. Kuifje en de kwijnende renaissance. Over het onstuitbare verlangen naar taalkundige doorbraken

Author

Vandenbussche, Wim, Linguistiek en Literatuurstudie, Taal- en Letterkunde, and Centrum voor Linguistiek

Abstract

There is little enthusiasm among the respondents for the sense of crisis that is central to the main article. Neither the declining autonomy of linguistics nor the diminishing primacy of the ‘Renaissance vision’ of the world are seen as negative. On the contrary, the increasing interweaving of linguistics and neighbouring sciences is widely supported and embraced as a source of opportunities and dynamism. The permanent renewal of the linguistic approach does not inspire any existential doubts, either. This optimism is accompanied, however, by a concern for safeguarding the quality of linguistic education.

7. Language contact research:scope, trends and possible future directions

Author

Darquennes, Jeroen, Salmons, Joseph, Vandenbussche, Wim, Darquennes, Jeroen, Salmons, Joseph, and Vandenbussche, Wim

Abstract

This chapter plays tribute to John R. Rickford’s language contact work in the Caribbean and United States and highlights his international influence. The main part of the chapter examines connections between the creolist and variationist strands in Rickford’s work with sociolinguistic studies in South Africa. I will highlight aspects of my own work that have operated in parallel with that of Rickford in relation to (1) plantation and post-plantation sociolinguistics of the country’s large population of Indian origin, (2) pidgin linguistics pertaining to the contact language, Fanakalo, (3) studies of youth languages in relation to urban vernaculars and ‘styling,’ and (4) the role of Black English varieties in post-apartheid South Africa.

Abstract

Language Contact. An International Handbook offers a comprehensive overview of current topics in research on language contact. Broadly conceived, it stands out for its international approach to language contact, complementing the theoretical state-of-the-art with examples from traditionally eclipsed areas and languages. Next to a thorough introductory overview of the ground-breaking methodological and theoretical approaches that shaped the discipline, ample attention goes to the new and innovative insights on language contact in the 21st century. Combining concise introductory contributions with in-depth treatment of the most relevant case studies in the field, the handbook speaks to both junior and established scholars.

Abstract

Objectives: To translate the Sarcopenia Quality of Life (SarQoL ® ) questionnaire into Dutch and to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Dutch version of this questionnaire., Methods: The translation was carried out using a 5-step process, with 2 initial translations, a merging of these 2 translations, 2 backwards translations, an expert committee review and a pretest of the questionnaire. Sarcopenia was diagnosed with the EWGSOP algorithm. The validation consisted of an examination of the discriminative power, internal consistency, construct validity, test-retest reliability and floor and ceiling effects., Results: No significant problems were encountered during the translation process. A total of 92 subjects were included in the validation part of this study, 30 of which were sarcopenic. Discriminative power between sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic subjects was found for all domains and the Overall score (median overall QoL score: 67.15 vs 79.72; p=0.003). High internal consistency was found (Cronbach's alpha=0.883), as well as good construct validity with 75% of hypotheses confirmed. Test-retest reliability was excellent (ICC=0.976; 95% CI=0.947-0.989) and no floor or ceiling effects were observed., Conclusion: The Dutch version of the SarQoL ® questionnaire is ready for use in clinical and research applications.
