摘要:

二语教学的主要目标是培养学生的交际能力。然而,中国学生在外语课堂上往往沉默寡言,很少主动用英语进行交流。交际意愿高的学生更愿意在外语课堂上寻找机会积极交际,因此提高二语交际意愿逐渐成为二语习得领域的热点话题。随着积极心理学在二语习得领域的发展,积极心理特质(如坚毅),学习者信念(如语言思维)与二语交际意愿的关系得到重视。本研究以Duckworth等人提出的坚毅构念以及Lou和Noels两人提出的语言思维模式为基础,通过构建结构方程模型来探究坚毅两个维度(不懈努力和如一兴趣)与二语交际意愿的关系以及成长型思维的中介作用,旨在回答以下三个研究问题:(1)不懈努力和如一兴趣是否可以预测成长型语言思维?(2)成长型语言思维是否在不懈努力和二语交际意愿之间起中介作用?(3)成长型语言思维是否在如一兴趣和二语交际意愿之间起中介作用?本研究以非英语专业的大学生为研究对象,共收集了488份有效问卷。本研究运用SPSS 26.0和AMOS 24.0对问卷数据主要进行了描述性统计分析,皮尔逊相关分析,结构方程模型检验以及路径分析。结果表明:(1)不懈努力和如一兴趣可以正向预测成长型语言思维;(2)成长型语言思维在不懈努力和二语交际意愿之间起中介作用;(3)成长型语言思维在如一兴趣和二语交际意愿之间起中介作用。本研究拓宽了二语交际意愿的研究视角,丰富了二语交际意愿的研究内容,在一定程度上对提高学生二语交际意提供了参考和启示。首先,英语教师在教学活动中应该激发学生的学习兴趣,帮助他们意识到努力程度的重要性,进而提高他们愿意用英语交流的意愿。其次,教师也应该注重培养学生的成长型语言思维,让学生意识到语言能力具有主观能动性,可以通过后天努力改变,从而促进他们愿意用外语交际的意愿。

  • The main goal of second language teaching is to cultivate students’ communicative competence. However, Chinese students are often reticent in the foreign language classroom and seldom communicate actively in English. Students with a high willingness to communicate are more willing to look for opportunities to communicate actively in foreign language classes, so improving willingness to communicate in a foreign and second language (L2 WTC) has gradually become a popular topic in the field of second language acquisition (SLA). With the boom of positive psychology in the field of SLA, the relationships between positive psychological traits (e.g., grit), learner beliefs (e.g., language mindset), and L2 WTC have been highlighted. Based on the grit (consisting of perseverance of effort and consistency of interest) proposed by Duckworth et al. and the language mindset developed by Lou and Noels, this study constructed a structural equation modelling (SEM) to investigate the relationships between the perseverance of effort (POE) and L2 WTC, between consistency of interest (COI) and L2 WTC as well as the mediating role of growth language mindset between these variables, with the aim of answering the following three research questions: (1) Do POE and COI predict L2 WTC? (2) Does growth language mindset mediate the relationship between POE and L2 WTC? (3) Does growth language mindset mediate the relationship between COI and L2 WTC? In this study, a total of 488 valid questionnaires were collected from non-English major college students. The questionnaire data were analyzed mainly by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, structural equation modelling test, and path analysis through SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 24.0. The results are as follows: (1) Both POE and COI positively predicted L2 WTC; (2) Growth language mindset mediated the relationship between POE and L2 WTC; (3) Growth language mindset mediated the relationship between COI and L2 WTC. This study broadens the research perspective of L2 WTC by way of enriching the research framework of L2 WTC. Additionally, it provides reference and inspiration for second language (L2) teachers in terms of improving students’ L2 WTC. First of all, L2 teachers should help students increase their interest and efforts in teaching and learning activities, which motivates them to actively engage in English communication. Secondly, teachers should also pay attention to cultivating students’ growth language mindset, so that students can realize that their language proficiency can be improved through seeking more opportunities to communicate in English.
