we can explain it in three possible levels:
1. view of structural linguistics and behavioral psychology ; that they are in the same way.
2.generative linguistics and cognitive psychology.
3.constructivism
The main schools of thought in second language acquisition are behaviorism, cognitive psychology, and sociocultural theory. Behaviorism emphasizes the role of reinforcement and conditioning in learning language, cognitive psychology focuses on mental processes like memory and problem-solving, and sociocultural theory looks at how social interaction and cultural context impact language learning.
Studies in Second Language Acquisition was created in 1978.
Yes, second language acquisition is fundamentally different from first language acquisition. In first language acquisition, children acquire language naturally and effortlessly through exposure and interaction with their environment. In second language acquisition, however, learners are consciously and intentionally acquiring a new language, often in an instructional setting, which involves different cognitive processes and strategies.
The language of choice for second language acquisition could be Spanish itself for a presentation, especially when discussing popular second languages to learn in the US.
It is the study of how people learn a language which is not their native tongue. For example my native language is English, but my second language is French as i studied it from the age of ten, before i studied any other foreign languages. When researching how people learn a new language - be it in school, listening to radio or watching TV in that target language or by going to a foreign country and immersing yourself in that language, that is second language acquisition research.
Psycholinguistics is the study of how the brain learns, uses, and understands languages. This includes the study of first language acquisition and second language acquisition, among other things, such as language production. Second language acquisition is a more specific topic - learning a non-native language. This is one of the topics studied by psycholinguists.

The younger the better. Language acquisition skills decline markedly with age. Start 'em in Kindergarten.

I think it is when you learn a second language. Like, if you speak English as your first language, then learn to speak Spanish fluently, you acquired Spanish as your second language.
