| 研究実績の概要 |
This is a longitudinal study exploring students' attitudes to speaking before, during and after their study abroad. During the first part of this study, Humphries, Ikeda and Aubrey collected classroom data from students in their classes with support from King and Yashima. We have written a joint publication based on our results, which is now under peer review.
I have written a paper as first author that explores students' reasons for speaking and silence (co-authored with Akamatsu, Burns and Tanaka), which is now under peer review. I also presented the results to this paper at JALT 2018 and at Leicester University and Kansas University.
I collected interview data from Kansai students during their study abroad at Kansas, Oregon, Queensland, Aston, Warwick and Canterbury. With Yashima, I also collected questionnaire data from students in Taiwan. I also met research collaborator Dr King in August/September 2018. I've written a book chapter about anxiety, which is now under peer review.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
I plan to present at JALT, ETA-ROC (Taiwan) and CamTESOL (Cambodia).
I will interview students about their speaking experiences (after their study abroad).
Hopefully, I can publish two journal articles and one book chapter this year and begin writing two more journal articles.
