Abstract:
Second language learners differ in how successfully they adapt to, and
profit from, instruction. This book aims to show that adaptation to L2
instruction, and subsequent L2 learning, is a result of the
interaction between learner characteristics and learning
contexts. Describing and explaining these interactions is
fundamentally important to theories of instructed SLA, and for
effective L2 pedagogy. This collection is the first to explore this
important issue in contemporary task-based, immersion, and
communicative pedagogic settings. In the first section, leading
experts in individual differences research describe recent advances in
theories of intelligence, L2 aptitude, motivation, anxiety and
emotion, and the relationship of native language abilities to L2
learning. In the second section, these theoretical insights are
applied to empirical studies of individual differences-treatment
interactions in classroom learning, experimental studies of the
effects of focus on form and incidental learning, and studies of
naturalistic versus instructed SLA.

"The significant advance, and unifying coherence, of this book is to
describe, in a variety of educational settings around the world, the
array of psychological constructs that combine and interact in the
learning and teaching of languages. The interrelations prove to be
more intricate, and more intriguing, than most previous books or
single theories would have had us believe."
