动机调控策略与写作成绩的关系解构:“岛脊曲线”视角

Disentangling the relation between motivation regulation strategies and writing performance:Island Ridge Curve angle

本研究旨在考察大学生英语写作动机调控策略对写作成绩的影响作用。研究采用"学习者中心+变量中心"的混合结构方程模型,结果表明:学生可以分为策略消极、均量和积极使用者3类;在3类学生群体中,写作动机调控策略使用对写作成绩的效用呈现先升后降的曲线形态,与其他语言学习策略使用中的"岛脊曲线"形态类似。

This study examined the relation between motivation regulation strategies for writing(MRSW) and writing performance of college students. The study applied a mixture modeling approach that combined person-centered latent profile analyses(LPA) and variable-centered structural equation modeling(SEM). LPA identified three MRSW profiles: low strategy users, medium strategy users, and high strategy users. Results of SEM across these latent profiles indicated that MRSW effect on writing showed a low-high-low pattern, similar to the Island Ridge Curve identified in use of other language learning strategies.
