Over the past two decades in the applied linguistics subfield of second language (L2) writing, there has been considerable interest in the topic of collaborative writing (CW). Studies in this domain have investigated different phenomena such as the nature of learner-to-learner interactions, the learning outcomes of CW, and students' perceptions of these activities when implemented in the classroom. Despite the large number of studies that have been published to date, replication research has been scarce. As such, the current article opens by making a case for replication work in the area of L2 CW, arguing why such research is both important and necessary. Following this, the article turns to a discussion of two key CW studies that have been highly influential in the L2 writing sphere. These studies are described in detail, and suggestions are provided as to how and why these studies might be replicated in the future.

L2 合作写作中的复制研究：Fernández Dobao （2012） 和 Bikowski 和 Vithanage （2016） 的复制


在过去的二十年里，在第二语言 （L2） 写作的应用语言学子领域，人们对协作写作 （CW） 这个话题产生了相当大的兴趣。该领域的研究调查了不同的现象，例如学习者与学习者互动的性质、CW 的学习成果以及学生在课堂上实施时对这些活动的看法。尽管迄今为止已经发表了大量研究，但复制研究一直很少。因此，本文首先提出了 L2 CW 领域的复制工作案例，论证了为什么此类研究既重要又必要。在此之后，本文转向讨论在 L2 写作领域极具影响力的两项关键 CW 研究。详细描述了这些研究，并就将来如何以及为何复制这些研究提供了建议。
