This change urged language researchers and practitioners worldwide to switch their focus from studying negative emotions to investigating both negative and positive factors involved in L2 teaching and learning.
“This change urged language researchers and practitioners worldwide to switch their focus from studying negative emotions such as anxiety (Marcos-Llinás and Garau, 2009), boredom (Pawlak et al., 2020), and burnout (Vaezi and Fallah, 2011), to the investigation of both negative and positive factors involved in the process of L2 teaching and learning (Chaffee et al., 2014; Dewaele and MacIntyre, 2014”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
