二语学习者心流体验的前因组态研究——基于NCA与fsQCA方法的分析

Configurational study on the antecedent conditions of flow experience in second language learners:An analysis based on NCA and fsQCA methods

本研究以632名非英语专业本科生为对象,结合运用NCA和fsQCA分析方法,实证考察了二语学习者心流体验的必要条件与前因组态。研究结果发现:(1)挑战与技能平衡是产生心流体验的必要条件;(2)心流体验的前因组态共有4种,分别为“目标—兴趣”双元驱动型、“目标—动机—兴趣”贯通驱动型、“目标—动机—交互”并促驱动型和“兴趣—反馈”互促驱动型。研究探明了二语学习者心流体验前因变量多重并发的因果机制,能为二语教学与学习提供一定启示。

With 632 non-English major undergraduates as the participants,this study examines the necessary conditions and antecedent configurations of L2 learners'flow experience using two analytical methods of NCA(necessary condition analysis)and fsQCA(fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis).The findings are as follows:(1)challenge-skill balance is a necessary condition for generating flow experience;(2)there are four distinct antecedent configurations contributing to flow experience,which include the“goal-interest”configuration,the“goal-motivation-interest”configuration,the“goal-motivation-interaction”configuration,and the“interest-feedback”configuration.The study reveals the causal mechanism of multiple antecedent variables of L2 learners'flow experience,and provides implications for L2 teaching and learning.
