The findings from the between-subject studies failed to inform the issue of preferences, although that of effectiveness was well answered. Stockwell addressed the issue by offering the freedom to choose either mobile phones or personal computers (PCs), and has found a strong preference for PCs despite the advancement and increased prevalence of mobile phones over years (Stockwell, 2007, 2008, 2010, 2013; Stockwell& Liu, 2015). The present study intends to investigate Taiwanese senior high school students’ preferences for devices in mobile-assisted vocabulary learning. The present study differs itself from the previous ones as it offered a wider selection of devices and included younger participants. In a public high school in northern Taiwan, 111 11th graders were recruited to participate in the study for four weeks. They were encouraged to practice vocabulary exercises for school English lessons on an online platform by using mobile phones, desktop PCs, laptop PCs, or tablet PCs. Results showed that mobile phones were the most frequently-used device, and were used primarily when the participants were at home. The performance in terms of the scores achieved and the time spent did not vary greatly among different devices. When interviewed about their preferences, most participants had a welcoming attitude towards mobile phones. They reported that there was no discomfort to the screen size or inputting method, and that they seldom used PCs or other devices in their daily lives. The high ownership of and the easy accessibility to the device determined their preference ofmobile phones over other devices. The participants confirmed their being accustomed to mobile lives. They took it for granted that learning and practicing vocabulary take place on mobile phones, which in turn facilitated their acceptance of mobile integration in their learning.行動輔助語言學習字彙學習行動載具學習平台mobile-assisted language learningvocabulary learningmobile deviceslearning platforms
