Between play and precarity
Language Attitudes in the Global South
Research on attitudes toward English varieties has been identified as a crucial contextual issue that is relevant to the implementation of the Teaching English as an International Language approach. Thus, the current study explores the attitudes of 400 Bosnian respondents toward different English varieties, employing a verbal guise technique for attitude elicitation. It also examines the respondents’ perceived intelligibility of these varieties a…
Attitudes Toward English in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Larger comparative studies into Europeans’ attitudes toward English are scarce particularly those researching southern-eastern European countries. Thus, the present study explores attitudes toward English among 1,179 respondents in Bosnia and Herzegovina, contrasting two emerging attitudinal clusters. Moreover, the study also compares Bosnians’ attitudes with the attitudes of two other national groups, that is, German and Dutch, from Edwards and …
Variation in attitudes towards codeswitching and codeswitching frequency among multilingual speakers
The current study replicates the research conducted in Dewaele and Li ([2014a]. “Intra- and Inter-Individual Variation in Self-Reported Code-Switching Patterns of Adult Multilinguals.” International Journal of Multilingualism 11 (2): 225–246; [2014b]. “Attitudes Towards Code-Switching among Adult Mono- and Multilingual Language Users.” Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development 35 (3): 235–251) and explores variation in attitudes towar…
Cooperative Learning as a Pathway to Strengthening Motivation and Improving Achievement in an EFL Classroom
The importance of applying cooperative learning and aiming toward an increase in motivation to maximize the effectiveness of the learning process has not sparked an intense research interest in the Bosnian EFL context. Thus, the current study, conducted among 211 high-school participants, explores the impact of gender and grade level on students' cooperative learning and motivation for EFL learning and aims to determine whether any cooperative le…
The use of digital technology in foreign language learning
Digital technology has become an essential factor in the process of language learning. This quantitative study investigates the use of technology as well as teacher's support in the process of technology-based learning of English as a foreign language (EFL) among high school students in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The data have been collected by the questionnaire modelling teachers' influence on learners' self-directed use of technology for language …
Research into intercultural effectiveness in a multicultural educational milieu in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Enhancing intercultural effectiveness through the development of intercultural skills and competencies substantially contributes to establishing a more peaceful and tolerant society, which explains a considerable research interest it excites. The present study aims at investigating how study field, grade-point average (GPA), nationality, gender, university status, and grade level impact intercultural effectiveness of Bosnian university-level stud…
The Effect of Nationality, Gender, and GPA on the Use of Reading Strategies Among EFL University Students
Despite its importance being acknowledged in a plethora of studies, developing reading strategies appears absent from many classrooms, which justifies a considerable research interest in this topic. The present study aims to investigate how gender, nationality, and grade point average affect the frequency of the usage of different types of reading strategies among Bosnian university students. The research sample comprised 228 students studying at…
The English of Bosnia and Herzegovina
With the number of world Englishes steadily increasing, the impact of 'core' English varieties is weakening. However, the influence of two varieties, namely standardised American English and standardised British English, seems to be dispersed across all areas, in particular across peripheral varieties. Due to the difference in their demographic weight and the institutional support they receive, these two varieties do not secure a balanced represe…
