Call for papers: 'SLA & emotions'
Dear friends and colleagues,
We are looking for anyone willing to contribute to the Panel 'Second language
acquisition and emotions' which we are convening at AAAL2003 (March 22-25)
(for more information see www.aaal.org/aaal2003)
Until recently investigations of language and emotions in a variety of fields
- except for psychoanalysis and psychological counseling - excluded bilingual
individuals. Memoirs of bilingual individuals suggest that some of their
languages may be perceived as more emotional than others (Pavlenko, 1998). A
number of recent studies have looked at how bilinguals talk about emotions in
their two languages. Pavlenko (2002a,b) investigated discursive construction
of emotions in the two languages of Russian-English bilinguals and found
evidence that the process of second language socialization resulted in the
conceptual restructuring of emotion categories of her adult language
learners. Dewaele & Pavlenko (2002), investigated the use of emotion
vocabulary in the advanced French interlanguage of Dutch L1 speakers and in
the advanced English interlanguage Russian L1 speakers. The results
demonstrate that proficiency, extraversion, type of linguistic material and
gender have an effect on the use of emotion words.

We intend to present preliminary findings based on the webquestionnaire with
34 questions on bilingualism and emotions which was recently advertised on
Linguistlist and which we invite you to fill out (
www.bbk.ac.uk/llc/biling+emotions/index.html)
We are looking for work that will break new ground and forge new directions
in the study of the relationship between emotions and second language
acquisition, be it work on expressing emotions in more than one language, or
in the second language, study of comprehension of emotion repertoires, or
work on differential emotional attachments to different languages of a second
language user.
If you are interested in presenting a paper in the panel (20 minutes of
presentation plus 10 minutes for discussion), could you please send us your
abstract by email before August 15th, the title of the paper, name and
affiliation of the author(s), an abstract of 300 words, followed by the
author’s postal and email addresses.
Thank you !
Aneta Pavlenko and Jean-Marc Dewaele
