"This book explores the ways in which migrants' experiences across cultural borders in today's multilingual and multicultural society are interconnected with personality and emotional attributes to inform language use and processing and in turn, migrants' perceptions of self-identity"--

This book explores the ways in which migrants’ experiences across cultural borders in today’s multilingual and multicultural society are interconnected with personality and emotional attributes to inform language use and processing and in turn, migrants’ perceptions of self-identity. //Drawing on survey data from hundreds of Italian migrants living in English-speaking countries, in conjunction with more focused interviews, the volume unpacks reciprocal influences between linguistic, cultural, and psychological variables to shed further light on how migrants emotionally engage with their local and heritage languages in different ways across public and private spaces. The book explores the resulting impact of constant shifting of linguistic and cultural practices following migration on migrants’ views of their personalities and in managing a linguistic and culturally mixed identity, with wider ranging implications of our understanding of migration experiences, multilingual acquisition processing and socialization, and on language teaching and cross-cultural communication practices. //This book will appeal to students and scholars interested in gaining nuanced insights into the linguistic, cultural, and psychological underpinnings of the migrant experience, in such disciplines as sociolinguistics, migration studies, foreign language acquisition, and social psychology.

This book explores the ways in which migrants’ experiences across cultural borders in today’s multilingual and multicultural society are interconnected with personality and emotional attributes to inform language use and processing and in turn, migrants’ perceptions of self-identity.
