[Peter MacIntyre]

>From June 23 - 25, 2022  the fourth international Psychology of Language Learning conference (PLL4) will be held at Cape Breton University, Sydney, Nova Scotia CANADA based on the theme “Currents and Waves.”
We are interested in receiving proposals on a wide range of topics relating to the many long-running currents of thought and new waves of thinking about psychology of language learning, including:
*        language learners and teachers as people and their various individual characteristics, including self-concept, motivation, identities, beliefs, agency, and emotions;
*        the dynamics of the learning process and interaction with others;
*        context and the psychology of language learning;
*        innovative and interdisciplinary approaches to research;
*        practical classroom applications.
We welcome 250-word proposals (+ a 50 word summary) from researchers and educators working in all contexts. We particularly encourage submissions from graduate students, early career researchers, and educators. PLL4, with its emphasis on forming connections among teachers and researchers around the world, will be an ideal venue for presenting research in progress and practical applications of theoretical concepts.
