德爾涅伊、麥金太爾、亨利編的《語言學習中的
動機與動力》介紹：This landmark volume offers
a collection of conceptual papers
andempirical research studies that
investigate the dynamics of languagelearning
motivation from a complex dynamic systems
perspective. Thecontributors include some of
the most well-established scholars fromthree
continents, all addressing the question of
how we can understandmotivation if we
perceive it as continuously changing and
evolving ratherthan as a fixed learner
trait. The data-based studies also provide
usefulresearch models and templates for
graduate students and scholars in thefields
of applied linguistics and SLA who are
interested in engaging withthe intriguing
area of examining language learning in a
dynamic vein.
