Introduction Multiple influencing factors, diverse participants, varied techniques: Interdisciplinary approaches to the study of Spanish-English codeswitching Rosa E. Guzzardo Tamargo,* Catherine M. Mazak,* and M. Carmen Parafita Couto** * Universidad de Puerto Rico / ** Leiden University Over the past 40 years, research in bilingual Spanish-English communities (e.g., Dussias, 2003; Fishman et al., 1971; Lance, 1975; Lipski, 1985; Otheguy & Zentella, 2012; Pfaff, 1979; Poplack, 1980; Timm, 1975; Toribio, 2001; Torres Cacoullos & Travis, 2010; Valdés-Fallis, 1976; Zentella, 1997) has significantly advanced the linguistic, social, and psychological understanding of codeswitch- ing (hereafter CS). This volume provides a sample of the most recent studies on Spanish- English CS both in the Spanish-speaking Caribbean and among Spanish- English bilinguals in the United States. With the purpose of supplying an updat- ed knowledge base on Spanish-English CS as well as innovative methodological tools for this type of research, the collection brings together the work of leading scholars representing diverse disciplinary perspectives within linguistics, includ- ing psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, theoretical linguistics, and applied lin- guistics. The chapters in this volume present various methodological approaches, including the collection of naturalistic oral and written data, the use of reading comprehension tasks, the elicitation of acceptability judgments, and computa- tional methods. Over the years, the importance of using varied techniques and strategies to study CS in the search for converging evidence has become clear (Gullberg, Indefrey, & Muysken, 2009; Isurin, Winford, & de Bot, 2009; Munarriz & Parafita Couto, 2014; Stell & Yapko, 2015; Thomas & Mennen, 2014). By unit- ing different, and often conflicting, theoretical and applied perspectives through the study of a common topic, this volume pushes the boundaries of the current understanding of Spanish-English CS. Our main goal with this volume is to go beyond the limits of different fields in order to achieve a multidisciplinary account of the ways in which Spanish- doi 10.1075/ihll.11.001int © 2016 John Benjamins Publishing Company
