Title: Book: Foreign Language Anxiety
Body: From http://www.c-s-p.org/Flyers/Foreign-Language-Anxiety-and-the-Advanced-Language-Learner1-4438-2377-5.htm Foreign Language Anxiety and the Advanced Language Learner: A Study of Hungarian Students of English as a Foreign Language Author: Zsuzsa Tóth Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing Description: Does anxiety about learning and using a foreign language decline as learners become more competent in the target language, or is anxiety also relevant at higher levels of proficiency? This is the question Foreign Language Anxiety and the Advanced Language Learner sets out to explore. The aim of the book is to give readers an insight into what role anxiety plays in the language learning and communication processes of advanced language learners. Specifically, the study examines how advanced EFL learners’ foreign language anxiety (FLA) can be characterized; how anxiety relates to other individual differences (cognitive, affective, personality); and explores the relationship between FLA and various aspects of learners’ performance and communication experience in the target language.
