Abstract
ABSTRACT This cross-national study investigates the role of the plurilingual identity and the psychological landscape, i.e. the psychological disposition of pre-service language teachers in their learning-to-teach process. Thirty multilingual pre-service teachers from Israel and Austria participated in the study (15 from each country). Data sources included language portraits and in-depth semi-structured interviews. Drawing on ecological perspectives, data were analysed qualitatively utilising content analysis. Predominant themes were identified suggesting that pre-service teachers’ plurilingual identity is closely intertwined with their psychological landscape, influencing a wide array of professional development dimensions of their learning-to-teach process.
