This volume brings together research on panel studies with the aim
of providing a coherent empirical and theoretical knowledge-base
for examining the impact of maturation and lifespan-specific
effects on linguistic malleability in the post-adolescent speaker.
Building on the work of Wagner and Buchstaller (2018), the present
collection offers a critical examination of the theoretical
implications of panel research across a range of geographic regions
and time periods. The volume seeks to offer a way forward in the
debates circling about the phenomenon of later-life language
change, drawing on contributions from a variety of linguistic
disciplines to examine critical topics such as the effect of
linguistic architecture, the roles of mobility and identity
construction, and the impact of frequency effects. Taken together,
this edited collection both informs and pushes forward key
questions on the nature of lifespan change, making this key reading
for students and researchers in cognitive linguistics, historical
linguistics, dialectology, and variationist sociolinguistics.
