Resumen

DING, Yiwen  y  WANG, Ting. Correlation analysis of learning outcomes between the second language (L2) and the third language (L3): the case of Chinese students. Méx.cuenca pac [online]. 2023, vol.12, n.35, pp.111-130.  Epub 13-Nov-2023. ISSN 2007-5308.  https://doi.org/10.32870/mycp.v12i35.828.

This article aims to investigate the possible correlation between the proficiency of the second language (L2, English) and the third language (L3, Spanish) in Chinese university students who speak Mandarin Chinese as their first language (L1). The analysis includes data provided by 61 students in the second year of university who study Spanish as major from zero but with nine to twelve years of experience in learning English as their first foreign language. The result reveals that there is a significant and positive relation between English and Spanish levels, giving evidence to prove the hypothesis that the second language constitutes an important factor for the third language learning, which corroborates the Factor Model proposed by Hufeisen that explains the process of third language acquisition.

Palabras llave : third language acquisition; Spanish learning; metalinguistic awareness; Chinese students; correlation analysis.
