中国大学生英语学习动机结构模型的探索——基于对二语动机自我系统的研究

Research on Structural Model of English Learning Motivation of Chinese College Students:Based on Study of Self-System of Second Language Motivation

以"二语动机自我系统"理论模型为研究框架,结合中国大学生的特性为该群体构建了外语学习动机结构模型,并采用SEM软件对结构模型进行了分析。研究结果表明:一是"二语动机自我系统"的三大主要构成因素中,"二语学习经历"和"理想二语自我"在调动中国大学生的英语学习积极性上发挥着重要作用;而另一构成要素"应该二语自我"则对自主学习行为没有影响;二是最具中国特色的构成因素是"家庭影响",它在中国大学生的未来定位和理想二语自我以及应该二语自我构建过程中发挥着重要的影响作用,从而间接地影响大学生的自主学习行为。

Taking the theoretical model of"second language motivation self-system"as the research framework,this paper combines the characteristics of Chinese college students to construct a structure model of foreign language learning motivation,and analyzes the structure model using SEM software.The results show that:first,in the three main components of the second language motivation self-system,"second language learning experience"and"ideal second language self"plays an important roles in mobilizing Chinese college students'English learning enthusiasm,but the other component,"planned second language self",has no effect on autonomous learning behavior.Second,the most influential component with Chinese characteristics is"family influence",which plays an important role in future orientation of Chinese college students,the ideal second language self and second language self-construction process,so as to indirectly affecting the autonomous learning behavior of college students.
