It’s Beyond Our Group ZPD : A Sociocultural Approach to the Unsuccessful Self-treatment of Writer’s Block in Times of COVID-19

Abstract

This study is a replication of Upper (1974). Our results are identical. We too have been unable to focus and accomplish our writing goals since the beginning of the global pandemic. We are certainly not alone, and we would like to recognize all of our colleagues who have also had to take on additional responsibilities at work and at home over the past year that have made writing nearly impossible.
