*Theoretical approaches to CALL research: Toward a psycholinguistic…

- - - - 67 out of 115 (58.3 %) empirical studies cognitive or social oriented vs 48 (41.7 %) that did not implement a specific theoretical underpinning. The
        lack of a theoretical underpinning in many studies, however, is still evident,
        
        This study confirms the “social turn” in SLA and CALL research the social outlook on SLA has developed stances and acuteness that uniquely add to the
        field’s capacities to investigate additional language learning [and that] other SLA communities need and can benefit from these alternative perspectives
    - - Out of 67 empirical studies with a theoretical foundation,
        40 (34.8 %) used socially-oriented approaches and 27 (23.5 %) used cognitive approaches.
        These findings are reflective of the “social turn” that started in the mid-1990s. The most frequently
        invoked ones were Sociocultural Theory and Social Constructivism
        
        CONCLUSIONS
    - - Answering this question is, admittedly, a complicated endeavor. Most of its theories have been developed
        off theories from other fields. The screening of socially-oriented approaches yielded 10 matches: Sociocultural
        Theory, Social Constructivism, Communities of Practice and Situated SLA
