Language learning aptitude is a hypothesized psychological construct that has been used to explain differences in how fast and how well people can acquire a second language (L2). It is generally assumed that language learning aptitude is a multidimensional phenomenon, meaning that it consists of sub-constructs that are not necessarily interrelated. Research on language aptitude and its relationship with language learning outcomes has been undertaken for at least 70 years but much still remains unknown about the nature of this construct. Key to understanding the effects of a hypothesized latent trait like language aptitude is to ensure that it can be meaningfully quantified, and also that whatever real world observations that the trait is su...
