Conclusion --; Index; restricted access; Issued also in print N2 - This book provides an overview of current theory, research and practice in the field of language anxiety and brings together a range of perspectives on this psychological construct in a single volume. Chapters in the volume are divided into three sections. Part 1 revisits language anxiety theory, showing that it can be viewed as a complex and dynamic construct and that it is linked to other psychological variables, such as the self and personality. In Part 2, a series of contextualised studies on language anxiety are presented, with a key feature of these studies being the diverse research designs which are applied in different instructional settings across the globe. Part 3 bridges theory and practice by presenting coping strategies and practice activities with a view to informing classroom practice and pedagogical interventions UR - https://doi.org/10.21832/9781783097722 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781783097722 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781783097722/original ER -
