“…Studies of the componential nature of a proficiency construct have been undertaken quite often for reading, writing, and speaking (e.g., De Jong, Steinel, Florijn, Schoonen, & Hulstijn, 2012; Jincho, Namiki, & Mazuka, 2008; Schoonen, Hulstijn, & Bossers, 1998; Schoonen et al, 2003; Schoonen, Van Gelderen, Stoel, Hulstijn, & De Glopper, 2011; Van Gelderen et al, 2004). These studies tend to find that linguistic knowledge components as well as speed or fluency factors are associated with success in both first language (L1) and L2 reading (Van Gelderen et al, 2004), L1 and L2 writing (Schoonen et al, 2003), and L2 speaking (De Jong et al, 2012).…”
