The findings from the open-ended questionnaires distributed among 65 undergraduates at the University of Isfahan as well as 45 interviews conducted in a private language school reveal that most of the participants feel they have partly experienced reversal conceptual transfer. However, most of them claimed not to have constructed a new foreign language identity in English, while those who did had a more positive attitude towards their English identity. 2017 artículo científico 0120-5927 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=499451852004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499451852004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499451852004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499451852004/499451852004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499451852004/movil http://dx.doi.org/10.19183/how.24.2.341 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4994 HOW application/pdf Asociación Colombiana de Profesores de Inglés HOW (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.24 |
