Age Factor And Gender Influence When Learning Languages. A Study Of Learner’s Learning Limitations.
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 5
Abstract
This research has focused on how influent are gender and age when learning a second or foreign language and more specifically in English language. Participants were Spanish learners with different level and age who had to complete two different exams, B and C. There were two separated groups depending on the level (level 0 and level 1), and ages (20, 25 and 30 or 40, 45 and 50 years old consecutively). The main results suggest that female gender is in a positive and higher position than male since their marks were usually greater. However, the age factor is not completely related with the comprehension or memorization of the exercises since results did not show a clear influence. This confirms but contradicts previous researches about the age factor. These results are explained and suggestions for further research are given.
