This volume provides the first systematic and data-driven
exploration of English emotional prosody processing in the minds of
non-native speakers of the language. Over the past few decades
emotional prosody has attracted the interest of researchers from a
variety of disciplines such as psychiatry, neuropsychology,
psycholinguistics, and linguistics. Although a considerable
collective body of empirical evidence exists regarding emotional
prosody processing in native speakers of various languages,
non-native speakers have been virtually ignored. This constitutes a
knowledge gap of increasing relevance, as we approach 2050, the
year when the global population of non-native speakers of English
is estimated to overtake that of native speakers of the language.
This volume aims to fill this gap and provide insights into how
emotions are processed on multiple levels while also presenting
novel methodological solutions. Crucially, Emotional Prosody
Processing for Non-Native English Speakers: Towards an Integrative
Emotion Paradigm begins by providing a conceptual background of
emotion research, and then demonstrates a novel, workable,
completely integrative paradigm for emotion research. This
integrative approach reconciles theories such as the dimensional
view of emotions, the standard basic emotions view, and the
appraisal view of emotions. Following this theoretical section is
an empirical exploration of the topic: the volume explores those
views via experimental tasks. The insight into overall processing
such a multiple-level approach allows a comprehensive answer to the
question of how non native speakers of English process emotional
prosody in their second language. By offering a critical,
data-driven, integrative approach to investigating emotions in the
minds of non-native English speakers, this volume is a significant
and timely contribution to the literature on emotion prosody
processing, bilingual research, and broadly understood emotion
research.
