“…A starting point could be to explore the types of identities and personalities students bring a priori to the use of video games. This argument is similar in nature to the ones posited by Guiora (1972) about language ego and ego permeability which revealed that different types of egos were affected by the effect of alcohol and the learning of English pronunciation. By the same token, empirical research could help understand individuals' personalities and how these are affected by the use of video games.…”

“…Guiora and Acton (1979), for example, defend the presence of a different self in the foreign language which they have coined "language ego". This concept refers to a psychological experience common to many language learners, who often feel like a different person when speaking a second language and often act very differently as well (Cohen and Norst, 1989;Guiora, 1972;Guiora and Acton, 1979). Similarly, Young (1992) supports the premise that language learning may provoke existential anxiety in learners.…”

“…Cette adaptabilité facile à la LE s'explique en réalité par le fait que cet ego dynamique n'est pas encore formé, qu'il est encore en construction et donc qu'il est encore pénétrable, flexible et selon le terme de Guiora (1972) «perméable». Cette perméabilité de l'ego est explicitée comme la disposition de l'individu «à accepter d'apparaître comme imparfait et de prêter le flanc à la critique pour son comportement linguistique maladroit, emprunté ou même risible» (Klein 1989: 28).…”

“…Les adultes ne veulent pas s'exposer à la langue, refusent de prendre des risques, se sentent dépourvus de toute sécurité, préfèrent protéger leur ego devenu fragile; et ainsi, lorsqu'ils sont obligés d'apprendre une LE, au contraire des enfants, ils doivent faire beaucoup plus d'efforts. Donc, la théorie de Guiora (1972) signifierait aussi que si l'adulte réussit à ouvrir les frontières de son ego langagier, s'il réussit à le rendre dynamique/ enfantin comme il l'était pendant son enfance, il sera libéré des facteurs affectifs le gênant à apprendre une LE. Les inhibitions n'existant plus, son adaptation à une nouvelle langue sera plus facile.…”
