Janice Jake is Chair of the English Department at Midlands Technical College in Columbia, SC. Her research interests lie in language contact, especially codeswitching. Dr. Jake's research focuses on extending the principles of the Matrix Language Frame Model (Myers-Scotton, Duelling Languages, 1993) and the 4-M Model of morpheme classification (Jake and Myers-Scotton, "The 4-M model: Different routes in production for different morphemes," Adamou and Matras, eds., in press) to other contact phenomena, such as language acquisition (Jake, "Constructing Interlanguage," Linguistics 36(2), 1998), pidgin and creole linguistics, and the intersection of socio- and psycholinguistics in contact phenomena (Myers-Scotton and Jake, "Cross-linguistic asymmetries in code-switching patterns: implications for bilingual language production," 2015, in Schwieter, ed.).
