摘要(Abstract):
研究证实综合二语成绩对外语愉悦及焦虑均有显著的预测作用,但鲜有研究考察各语言模块的成绩与二语课堂情绪的关系。鉴于此,本研究考察综合外语成绩、综合成绩感知及听、说、读、写、词汇、语法六个语言模块成绩感知对外语愉悦及焦虑的预测作用。共1415名中国高中生参与问卷调查,回归分析结果显示:1)相比真实的综合成绩,综合成绩感知对外语愉悦及焦虑的预测作用;2)口语及语法成绩感知对两种情绪均有显著的预测作用;3)阅读成绩感知对外语愉悦有显著的预测作用,但对外语焦虑无显著预测作用更强;4)听力、写作及词汇成绩感知对两种情绪均无显著预测作用。这些研究发现表明外语情绪研究需要考虑不同语言模块类型的不同特征。
Recent research has confirmed the predictive effect of general foreign language(FL) achievement on Foreign Language Enjoyment(FLE) and Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety(FLCA).However, few studies have examined the effect of domain-specific language achievement in shaping FL learning emotions. The present study thus aims to examine how FLE and FLCA are linked to overall FL achievement and self-perceived achievement in six different domains across listening,speaking, reading, writing, vocabulary, and grammar. A total of 1,415 Chinese senior secondary students participated in the questionnaire survey. Regression analyses showed that 1) both FLE and FLCA were predicted more by self-perceived general English proficiency, while less by actual English achievement; 2) perceptions of speaking and grammar competence were significant predictors of both emotions; 3) perceived reading competence predicted FLE significantly but not FLCA; and that 4) perceptions of listening, writing, and vocabulary competence predicted neither FLE nor FLCA. The implication is that domain-specificity should be taken into consideration in future explorations of FL emotions.
