2020
La Ansiedad en una Lengua Extranjera (ALE) se ha considerado uno de los factores más importantes que afectan el grado de éxito del aprendizaje de idiomas (Daubney, Dewaele y Goknou, 2017).

Esta tesis doctoral aborda este problema explorando la relación entre ALE y la tartamudez en el aprendizaje del inglés como lengua extranjera en el contexto español.
