摘要

摘要本解释性混合方法研究旨在了解第二语言动机(包括理想二语自我和应该二语自我)与学生非正式数字英语学习(IDLE)之间的关系,以及这种关系是否受到最突出的积极情绪-享受的调节。共有391名中国大学生参与了本次调查,其中15人在之后接受了访谈。定量分析结果表明,理想二语自我与被试的IDLE存在显著的正相关关系,其中外语享受(FLE)对理想二语自我有部分中介作用,而外语享受对理想二语自我和IDLE有显著预测作用的假设被否定。定性数据详细说明了生动和详尽的第二语言视觉如何有助于提高英语学习的乐趣,并成为IDLE练习最具影响力的动力。与此同时,外在动机和工具动机不能预测中国大学生的享受,使他们无法在非正式和数字化环境中投入有效的语言学习实践。对这些发现和教学意义的讨论有助于绘制出利用理想二语自我的力量使中国大学生参与校外和数字化语言学习生态的路径。

Examining the relationships among motivation, informal digital learning of English, and foreign language enjoyment: An explanatory mixed-method study
Abstract This explanatory mixed-method study seeks to understand the relationships between second language (L2) motivation (including the ideal L2 self and the ought-to L2 self) and students’ informal digital learning of English (IDLE) and whether such relationships are mediated by the most prominent positive emotion – enjoyment. A total of 391 Chinese university students participated in the survey, and 15 of them were interviewed later. Quantitative analysis revealed a strong positive relationship between the ideal L2 self and participants’ IDLE, which was partially mediated by foreign language enjoyment (FLE), while the hypotheses that the ought-to L2 self significantly predicted FLE and IDLE were rejected. The qualitative data added details to how a vivid and elaborate L2 vision contributed to enhanced English learning enjoyment and served as the most influential motivator for IDLE practices. Meanwhile, the external and instrumental motives could not predict Chinese university students’ enjoyment, disempowering them to invest in productive language learning practices in the informal and digitalized environment. The discussion of these findings and pedagogical implications helps to chart the path for utilizing the power of the ideal L2 self to engage Chinese university students with the extramural and digitalized language learning ecology.
