Abstract:

Understanding Attitude in Intercultural Virtual Communication focuses on
attitude, the “willingness to explore, learn and participate in online
networks, collaborate with others, share ideas, knowledge, media and
contribute to the collective construction of knowledge” (Helm & Guth, 2010, p.
81) in telecollaborative encounters. Recent studies have suggested that, to
ensure successful virtual collaboration, interpersonal factors such as
identity, rapport and trust are essential and the development of these factors
relies heavily on the attitudinal dimension and how participants chose to
reflect it in their interaction (Oskoz & Gimeno-Sanz, in press; Vinagre &
Corral, 2018; Vinagre & Corral, forthcoming). In telecollaboration, research
on the participants’ use of attitudinal resources has been mostly
content-based and Byram’s (1997) model of intercultural competence the
approach most widely used for analysis. More recently, studies have looked at
attitude from a linguistic perspective, and frameworks such as appraisal
(Martin & White, 2005) that examine L2 learners’ attitudes and ideological
positions have been employed. Despite these efforts, research in this field is
still scarce and this volume aims to further explore this topic by gathering
contributions in which a variety of approaches and perspectives have been
taken to investigate attitude in virtual communication.
