This book provides practical guidance on research methods and
designs that can be applied to Complex Dynamic Systems Theory
(CDST) research. It discusses the contribution of CDST to the field
of applied linguistics, examines what this perspective entails for
research and introduces practical methods and templates, both
qualitative and quantitative, for how applied linguistics
researchers can design and conduct research using the CDST
framework. Introduced in the book are methods ranging from those in
widespread use in social complexity, to more familiar methods in
use throughout applied linguistics. All are inherently suited to
studying both dynamic change in context and interconnectedness.
This accessible introduction to CDST research will equip readers
with the knowledge to ensure compatibility between empirical
research designs and the theoretical tenets of complexity. It will
be of value to researchers working in the areas of applied
linguistics, language pedagogy and educational linguistics and to
scholars and professionals with an interest in second/foreign
language acquisition and complexity theory.
