Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book offers an in-depth exploration of the causes and consequences of competition among language learners, with a particular focus on understanding the intricate relationships between competitiveness, beliefs about competition, and other psychological variables pertinent to language learning, such as motivation, anxiety, and mindsets. The initial chapters provide a comprehensive review of various competition theories and the latest empirical research on competition across diverse domains, including education and the workplace. Subsequently, the book qualitatively investigates the linguistic, psychological, educational, cultural, and contextual factors that contribute to competition in English language classrooms. It also delves into the potential psychological, educational, and personal outcomes of such competition in second language (L2) learning environments. Furthermore, this monograph scrutinizes the interplay between competition-related variables and the motivational and emotional dimensions of L2 learning. In its concluding sections, the book offers practical insights for language educators, guiding them on how to effectively manage competition among students to mitigate its adverse effects while leveraging its potential to enhance language learning and development.
