The importance of motivation for learning to the learning results is well-known. Factors such as the value of success to the learner, the learner's judgment of this ability to perform a specific task, the attributions of past successes and failures have great influence on the learner's motivation for learning. The learner's motivation for learning is actually a cognitive and affective change process. This essay discusses and analyses the influence and implications of expectancy-value theories on Chinese students' motivation for foreign language learning and their learning results from the angle of cognitive developmental psychology.
