coverage of organisational contexts including education, government, justice, heritage, and the workplace;
activities including after-school programmes, workplace training courses, social media campaigns, and video productions;
application of research to professional practice including teaching (primary school to university), adjudication, police interviewing, and governmental policymaking;
contributors’ personal reflections on the research process and its outcomes, including constructive critiques of institutional definitions of impact.

With chapters spanning research across five continents, Sociolinguistic Research: Application and Impact is essential reading for sociolinguistic researchers, students embarking on sociolinguistic research, and anyone interested in the practical application of research on language and society.
