This closing chapter aims to assess the contribution of the book to TBLT theory and research and to put forward directions for advancing TBLT constructs and research agendas. We consider the volume's overall contribution to the TBLT field to lie in linking the psycholinguistic with the textual, meaning-making nature of writing and in presenting theoretical and methodological refinements along with empirical advances that reflect that orientation. We have organized the details of that contribution as well as the suggestions for future research directions along four closely inter-related foci, n
