The conference theme of the PLL6 conference to be hosted in Shantou University, China has been announced as is “Positive Vis-à-Vis Negative and Beyond.” This theme highlights the growing scholarly interest in unpacking various dichotomies (e.g., positive versus negative, proactive versus reactive, and teaching versus learning) in the field of psychology of language learning. A noticeable preference for dialectical perspectives over dichotomous ones facilitates a deeper exploration into the complexity of relationships between variables and the constant flux of their interconnections. This perspective is particularly reflected in the Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST; Larsen-Freeman & Cameron, 2008), which has served as an important theoretical lens for revealing the dynamic configurations of learner and teacher psychology and their impact on language learning, teaching, and communication.
