While these factors have been explored in traditional classrooms, their roles in online EFL education have remained underexamined. Additionally, learners’ attitudes toward online learning environments, which may influence engagement and outcomes, have rarely been investigated. This study aimed at exploring the role of peer feedback and social support in enhancing Chinese EFL learners’ motivation, task engagement, and language mastery, while also examining their attitudes toward online learning. A mixed-methods design was utilized, involving 122 female EFL learners from China, divided into a Peer Feedback Group (Experimental Group 1), a Social Support Group (Experimental Group 2), and a Control Group (CG). Quantitative data were obtained through pre- and post-tests, while qualitative data were gathered via open-ended surveys to capture the participants’ perspectives. Results revealed that both peer feedback and social support significantly improved motivation, task engagement, and language mastery, with EG1 and EG2 demonstrating similar post-test performance. The participants expressed positive views toward online learning, emphasizing the importance of social interactions in maintaining motivation and engagement. The study concluded that integrating peer feedback and social support into online EFL instruction can significantly enhance learning outcomes. It underscores the value of fostering social interactions in virtual environments and suggests that learners’ attitudes are essential to the effectiveness of these mechanisms. These findings offer practical insights for improving online EFL instruction by leveraging peer feedback and social support as equally effective educational tools for language learning.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47305,"journal":{"name":"Learning and Motivation","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 102126"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143734627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the effects of the reading-writing continuation task on reducing boredom in Spanish L2 reading classes, the factors influencing the effectiveness, and students’ perceptions of the task. A quasi-experimental design was adopted, involving 67 participants (33 in the experimental class and 34 in the control class). Data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The findings reveal that the reading-writing continuation task significantly reduces boredom in Spanish L2 reading classrooms, including boredom related to reading materials, under-challenging tasks, and perceived meaninglessness. Furthermore, the effects vary based on participants’ Spanish proficiency levels and grade levels. Participants’ perceptions of the task were mixed, highlighting its openness and nature to bring a sense of psychological security as positive aspects, while noting challenges posed by limited language proficiency. The study suggests incorporating reading-writing continuation tasks of varying difficulty levels into L2 reading instructions.

To address this research gap, the present study explored the effects of the DGBL on Chinese EFL learners’ social collaboration, problem-solving skills, and motivation using a mixed-methods approach. The participants including 191 male and female students were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (EG), which engaged in the DGBL activities, or a control group (CG), which followed traditional instruction. Data were collected via pre- and post-intervention questionnaires assessing social collaboration, problem-solving skills, and motivation, with semi-structured interviews providing deeper insights into students’ perceptions. Findings revealed that the EG significantly outperformed the CG in all measured domains. Quantitative results indicated substantial gains in social collaboration, problem-solving skills, and motivation, while qualitative data underscored the participants’ positive views of DGBL’s effectiveness. These results suggest that DGBL is a potent tool for enhancing both cognitive and social dimensions of EFL learning. By fostering an interactive, learner-centered environment, the DGBL offers EFL teachers and stakeholders valuable opportunities to strengthen students’ social, cognitive, and affective development.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47305,"journal":{"name":"Learning and Motivation","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 102123"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143687746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such pretraining can occur inside or outside of the specific learning environment, but by definition must precede the onset of training. Pretraining can modify the rate and quality of early learning and the final performance levels attained. Within experimental psychology, laboratories often include pretraining to hasten acquisition, but few empirical studies support this practice. Therefore, in the present study, four distinct levels of pretraining were examined by randomly assigning 284 naïve rats into groups: no training, chamber acclimation, pellets only, or magazine training. By manipulating experience with the chamber, food pellets, and stimuli associated with pellet delivery, direct assessments were made of pretraining on autoshaped lever press acquisition and incremental progress through a fixed order of common (ratio and interval) schedules of reinforcement. Pretraining affected acquisition, and the several measures of learning corroborated the presumed benefits of magazine training. Notably, simple pre-exposure to the chamber (both with pellets and without pellets in the magazine) also promoted acquisition compared to the no-training group. Nevertheless, despite clear benefits upon acquisition in early sessions, comparable levels of performance developed as training progressed, with the exception of higher lever-pressing rates from the magazine-training group compared to the pellets-only and chamber-acclimation groups. Magazine training hastened operant acquisition, but the overall benefit was somewhat diminutive and short-lived, and the practical value of these pretraining procedures on subsequent operant performance appears limited.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47305,"journal":{"name":"Learning and Motivation","volume":"90 ","pages":"Article 102112"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143592589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
