The study focuses on speakers whose native languages are Punjabi, Seraiki, Pashto, and Urdu, and examines how changes in local vowel inventories and glide processes influence diphthong production. The controlled production and perception tasks were done o…
Gender-based variations in the production and perception of English diphthongs by Pakistani English speakers
The global diffusion of English has fostered diverse localized varieties, among which Pakistani English (PE) continues to evolve within its multilingual and socially stratified environment. While prior research has investigated various phonological features of PE, limited attention has been paid to diphthongs—complex vowel units susceptible to sociophonetic variation. This study examines gender-based differences in the production and perception o…
Beyond Universal Models
This study investigates the influence of Trait Emotional Intelligence (TEI) on affective dimensions of English language learning among 515 Pakistani EFL learners, addressing a key gap in Global South research. Using bootstrapped multiple regression and culturally adapted instruments (Cronbach’s α = 0.724–0.857), findings reveal that in Pakistan’s exam-driven, teacher-centered classrooms, well-being significantly enhances attitudes (β = 0.172, p

These include loneliness and satisfaction with relationships. The current study invest…
Testing the underlying structure of unfounded beliefs about Covid-19 around the world

Here, we examined cross-nationally the structure and correlates of these beliefs with an 8-item scale, using a multigroup confirmatory factor analysis. We obtained a two-factor model of unfounded (conspiracy and health) beliefs with good internal structure (average CFI = 0.98, RMSEA = 0.05, SRMR = 0.04), but a high correlation between the two factors (…

This project …
