This procedure is applicable in a variety of research contexts and data structures. Consequently, and similar to quantitative traditions in sister-disciplines such as education and psychology (see…

By tradition, L2 motivation research has a monolingual bias--the motivational systems of a learner's different languages conceptualized as separate entities rather than as cognitively interconnected.

Two, we will argue that the shortcomings of the typology may account…

However, each language skill appears to retain enough unique variance that the score in one skill cannot…

The study employed a questionnaire to assess variables of motivation, self-efficacy, anxiety, and language learning strategies. The sample…
