PROMOTING FLOURISHING IN LANGUAGE LEARNING: A POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY
PERSPECTIVE

The Canadian Modern Language Review is calling for papers for its 2024
special issue, which focuses on promoting flourishing in language
learning from a positive psychology perspective.

Seligman and Csikszentmihalyi (2001) define positive psychology as a
"science of positive subjective experience, positive individual
traits, and positive institutions" whose fundamental objective is
helping individuals and communities thrive in a dynamic and
unpredictable world (p. 5). Positive experiences (e.g., positive
emotions, flow, well-being) promote learning and human development by
broadening cognition and inciting exploration and engagement
(Fredrickson, 2000).

In the decade following MacIntyre and Gregersen's (2012) seminal
introduction of positive psychology into the field of second language
acquisition (SLA), it has blossomed into "a field in full expansion"
(Dewaele et al., 2019, p. 10). Indeed, the affective branch of SLA has
shifted from a nearly exclusive focalization on understanding and
remediating negative classroom experiences (e.g., language anxiety) to
broadening attention to positive language learning experiences related
to all three domains of positive psychology research (experiences,
traits, institutions): We now have a richer understanding of how
teachers and classroom practices interact with positive subjective
language experiences in the present (flow, enjoyment, cf., Zuniga,
2022), the future (hope, cf., Hiver, 2016) and the past (satisfaction,
cf., Simard & Zuniga, 2020), and how learners' character strengths
(courage, grit, resilience, cf., Gregersen et al., 2021) and
individual differences (personality, linguistic profile, cf., Dewaele
& MacIntyre, 2014) interact with the subjective experience of language
learning.

With this in mind, The Canadian Modern Language Review wishes to
publish papers on promoting flourishing in language learning from a
positive psychology perspective.  We are hoping to gather papers
focusing on how teachers, tasks and practices interact with the
quality of learners' positive subjective language learning experiences
(emotions, flow, well-being, hope, optimism, satisfaction), how
learner traits (character strengths, personality, self-regulation,
linguistic background) interact with the quality of those experiences,
and how such experiences and traits interact with language learning
and use. We encourage articles that examine links between both
positive and negative experiences, articles that build on existing
knowledge, articles that make cross-disciplinary links to other
related domains (e.g., linguistics, culture, and identity studies),
and longitudinal and mixed-method studies.

Submissions must be sent electronically, through the ScholarOne
