Shen, Bin; Bai, Barry; Park, Moonyoung – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
As an intimidating school subject for students globally, writing requires a high level of motivation, especially for second language (L2) learners.

McInerney, Erin – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2023
The many permutations of spoken English have called for an interrogation into the notions of 'standard English' and 'native accents'. Despite their problematic nature, these terms remain commonly used, and familiarity with 'standard', inner-circle varieties of English is typical among L2 English speakers, differences in education and language…

Brouwer, Susanne – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2019

Aparici, J. Apesteguia, J. Heafner, and B. Keysar. 2014. "Your Morals Depend on Language." PLoS One 9 (4): e94842]. The aim of the current…

Jiang, Mei; Green, Raymond J.; Henley, Tracy B.; Masten, William G. – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2009
Learners who begin to acquire a second language (L2) in a naturalistic environment after puberty are thought to be constrained by biological age factors and to have greater difficulty obtaining native-like L2. However, the extant literature suggests that L2 acquisition may be positively affected by post-maturational factors, such as acculturation.…
