Ying Shan Doris Zhang; Kimberly A. Noels – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
Despite the inherently meaningful nature of Chinese names, Chinese international students often adopt an English name, particularly when they pursue education in English-speaking countries.

Kun Dai; Ian Hardy – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
A growing number of international doctoral students choose to study in China, a non-traditional learning destination.

Okim Kang; Katherine Yaw – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
If extraneous information leads listeners to biased judgements, then their speech perceptions are likely to manifest distortion in that direction. This phenomenon is known as reverse linguistic stereotyping (RLS), which has been confirmed by 25 years of empirical study. Recent research on effects of listener background on ratings of speaker…

Congcong Xing; Guanglun Michael Mu; Deborah Henderson – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
With English hegemony sustained in 'multicultural' Anglophone universities, non-English speaking research students often develop diverse strategies to improve their English. While such strategies demonstrate a form of resilience, the symbolic power of English remains intact. To grapple with this paradox, we draw on the work of Pierre Bourdieu to…

Wen Chen; Peizhen Sun; Zishuo Yang – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024

Xiao Zhang; Christiane Lütge; Lili Zou – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
Although there is a body of research on the teacher first language (L1) use in English-medium-instruction (EMI) classrooms, very little research has probed into how international students perceive local teacher L1 use and their learning practices in the English as a lingua franca (ELF) context. To address the gap, the present case study explored a…

Eleftheria Christou; Nathan Thomas; Jim McKinley – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
The global expansion of English has raised a call for English-language teachers around the world to frame English as an international language (EIL).

Xiao Zhang; Christiane Lütge – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
International students' attitudes towards teachers' codeswitching to the first language (L1) have not been adequately investigated in cross-cultural English-medium instruction (EMI) settings, where teachers and international students do not share the same L1 while they interact in English as a lingua franca (ELF). To fill that void, this study…
