The study draws on the case of one Canadian student of German who studied abroad at a German university for one year. To adopt an emic perspective, the data gained from a learning history questionnaire, semi-structured interviews, and e-journals were analyzed and interpreted within the framework of narrative analysis. The results show not only that learners’ sojourn objectives may be complex, dynamic, and contradictory in nature but also that they need to be examined beyond their face value, as they are entangled with learners’ negotiations of desirable subject positions and attempts to integrate their sojourn experiences, successes, and frustrations in a coherent and positive life narrative."}],"volume":73,"keyword":["individual differences","learner beliefs","narrative analysis","sojourn objectives and evaluations","study abroad"],"date_created":"2021-12-07T10:18:50Z","issue":"1","publication":"The Canadian Modern Language Review","type":"journal_article","page":"24-47","year":"2017","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0008-4506","1710-1131"]},"intvolume":"        73","_id":"28348","status":"public","author":[{"full_name":"Müller, Mareike","last_name":"Müller","first_name":"Mareike","id":"71540"}]}
