María Martínez-Adrián; Francisco Gallardo-del-Puerto – Language Teaching Research, 2024

Radu Bogdan Toma – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2024
The Expectancy-Value model has been extensively used to understand students' achievement motivation. However, recent studies propose the inclusion of cost as a separate construct from values, leading to the development of the Expectancy-Value-Cost model. This study aimed to adapt Kosovich et al.'s ("The Journal of Early Adolescence", 35,…

Camus, Pablo; Advani, Mehak – Hispania, 2021
Study abroad (SA) provides a space and place for second language (L2) learners to be challenged in terms of their target language skills and intercultural awareness. In order to appropriately equip learners, a task-based approach seems ideal to identify learners' specific needs (Long 2015). The present study reports a multiphase needs analysis…
