| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated the relationship between motivation (i.e., intrinsic and extrinsic motivation; ideal and ought-to L2 selves) and EFL learners’ self-regulated learning behavior. Data was collected from a total of 342 Japanese university students using a five-point Likert scale questionnaire and interviews. Regression analyses were performed to analyze student responses to the questionnaire, and the results showed that intrinsic motivation has a more direct effect on self-regulated learning behavior than the L2 selves. The interview data was transcribed and analyzed, and and this data also supported the hypothesis that the ideal L2 self encourages EFL students to exert more effort to learn English autonomously. However, the results also demonstrated that the ideal L2 self is a motivational force, only when students have ample background experience learning and using English.
