Kharkhurin presents the results of his empirical investigation into the impact of multilingual practice on an individual's creative potential. Until now, the relationship between these two activities has received little attention in the academic community. The book makes an attempt to resuscitate this theme and provides a solid theoretical framework supported by contemporary empirical research conducted in a variety of geographic, linguistic, and sociocultural locations. This study demonstrates that several factors - such as the multilinguals' age of language acquisition, proficiency in these languages and experience with cultural settings in which these languages were acquired - have a positive impact on selective attention and language mediated concept activation mechanisms. Together, these facilitate generative and innovative capacities of creative thinking. This book will be of great interest not only to scholars in the fields of multilingualism and creativity, but also to educators and all those interested in enhancing foreign language learning and fostering creativity. 410 0$aBilingual Education and Bilingualism 606 $aMultilingualism$xPsychological aspects 606 $aCreativity (Linguistics) 606 $aPsycholinguistics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMultilingualism$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aCreativity (Linguistics) 615 0$aPsycholinguistics. 676 $a404/.2019 700 $aKharkhurin$b Anatoliy V$01046922 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462278803321 996 $aMultilingualism and creativity$92474197 997 $aUNINA
