摘要
本文运用定量研究的方法,以30所高校的2278名本科生为调查对象,分析了学生英语动机强度与自我认同变化的关系,以及个人背景因素对动机强度的影响.结果显示动机强度对六种自我认同变化均有显著影响.在自信、生产性、附加性变化方面,动机强度越高的学生变化也越大;削减性变化也显现出相同的趋势,但中、高动机强度组之间的差异不显著.零变化的趋势则相反,动机强度越高的学生零变化越小.在分裂性变化方面,动机强度中等的学生变化最大,动机强度最高的学生变化最小.此外,年级、英语水平和专业对动机强度有显著影响.
This research examined the relationship between Chinese college undergraduates' English learning motivational intensity and their self identity changes, and the effect of demographic features on motivational intensity. The subjects were 2,278 undergraduates from 30 Chinese universities. Results showed that motivational intensity had significant effects on all the 6 types of self identity changes. Students with higher motivational intensity demonstrated more self confidence, productive, and additive changes. Subtractive changes also tended to increase with the increase of motivational intensity, but the difference between the high and mid motivational intensity groups was not significant. On the other hand, students with higher motivational intensity scored lower on zero change. With split change, the high motivational intensity group ranked at the bottom, and the mid group ranked at the top. It was also found that year in college, English proficiency and field of study had significant effects on motivational intensity.
