It is with immense pleasure and gratitude that we present this latest Special Issue of LTRQ, celebrating the remarkable 35-year career of Professor Peter MacIntyre and his extraordinary contributions to the broad fields of language education, educational psychology, and second language acquisition (SLA). Professor MacIntyre, currently a distinguished Professor of Psychology at Cape Breton University in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada, stands as a towering figure in the interdisciplinary realms of educational psychology and language education. His groundbreaking work has not only advanced theoretical understanding and research methodology but has also had a profound impact on pedagogical practices worldwide.
