Example paragraph with an in-text citation and references.
A few researchers in the linguistics field have developed training programs designed to
improve native speakers' ability to understand accented speech (Derwing et al., 2002;
Thomas, 2004). Their training techniques are based on the research described above
indicating that comprehension improves with exposure to non-native speech.Derwing et
al. (2002) conducted their training with students preparing to be social workers but note
that other professionals who work with non-native speakers could benefit from a similar
program.
