Interviews reveal significant findings on emotions from leading scholars in second language acquisition.
The Theory and Practice of Second Language Acquisition (TAPSLA) proudly introduces "The Minds Behind SLA: Insights from Leading Scholars," a new section designed to highlight the intellectual journeys of prominent Second Language Acquisition (SLA) researchers. While academic journals typically focus on research findings, they rarely explore the processes behind these discoveries. This section addresses this gap through interviews with influential scholars, offering valuable content for both experienced and early-career researchers. We begin this series with Jean-Marc Dewaele, whose work on emotions in language learning has significantly shaped the field.
