A Study of Senior High School Students’ English Learning Motivation from the Perspective of Motivation Theory

  1. Introduction

There are many factors which influence the foreign language learning, while motivation is one of the most important factors. Scholars probe into motivation and motivation theories through different angles. “In 1959 Gardner and Lambert came up with social-educational model from the perspective of social psychology”(Elçin Ölmezer Öztürk, 2012). Afterwards, Maslow added new ideas to motivations. He researched on motivation theories through humanistic point of view and put forward hierarchy of needs theory in 1970. And motivation theories are in constant development, for example E-Deci and Ryan’s self-determination theory, Dornyei’s motivational framework of L2 and so on.

All of these motivation theories had helped our national scholars carry out the relevant researches. At home, linguists have researched the motivation theories since 1980s. They have experienced from translating foreign classic theories, such as: Psychological Linguistics of Gui Shichun, Foreign Educational Psychology of Zhang Qianzhong, and Appropriate Psychological Linguistics of Wang Chuming, etc, to having their own views. And after 1990s scholars like Wang Chuming, who summarized the relationships between cognitive emotion and learning demands, have devoted to the study of the emotional learning factors of language learners. And nowadays, it’s still popular to apply motivation theories to English teaching which establishes new linkages between English teaching and motivation theories.
