摘要

毅力是一种新颖的、相当重要的心理变量,它与英语作为第二语言或外语(ESL/EFL)的表现有关。然而,关于毅力与英语学习者发音表现之间关系的研究却很少。因此,本研究试图通过使用发音自我效能信念作为中介变量来建立毅力与沙特英语学习者发音表现之间的联系。设计/方法/方法本研究采用定量相关研究设计。通过问卷调查和发音测试收集了350名沙特大学英语学习者的数据。结果表明,毅力和兴趣的一致性与学习者的发音自我效能感有显著的正相关关系。此外,语音自我效能感信念与语音表现呈显著正相关。最后,研究结果表明,发音自我效能感信念介导了女孩(即努力的毅力和兴趣的一致性)与发音表现之间的关联。独创性/价值本研究的发现对英语课堂教学具有启示意义。通过将勇气和自我效能感信念融入学生,教师可以提高学生的英语发音表现。

The nexus between grit and pronunciation performance among EFL learners: the mediating role of pronunciation self-efficacy beliefs
PurposeGrit is a novel, rather an important psychological variable that has been associated with performance in the English as a second or foreign language (ESL/EFL) context. However, there is a dearth of research on the relationship of grit and pronunciation performance among EFL learners. Consequently, the current study sought to establish the association between grit and the pronunciation performance of Saudi EFL learners by employing pronunciation self-efficacy beliefs as a mediating variable.Design/methodology/approachA quantitative correlational research design was deployed in this research. Data were collected from 350 Saudi university EFL learners using questionnaires and a pronunciation test.FindingsFindings indicated that both the dimensions of grit (i.e. perseverance of effort and consistency of interest) showed a significant and positive association with the learners' pronunciation self-efficacy beliefs. Also, the pronunciation self-efficacy beliefs showed a significant and positive association with the pronunciation performance. Lastly, findings indicated that pronunciation self-efficacy beliefs mediated the association between girt (i.e. perseverance of effort and consistency of interest) and pronunciation performance.Originality/valueThe study’s findings have implications for the EFL classroom. By incorporating grit and self-efficacy beliefs into students, teachers can enhance their students' English pronunciation performance.
