MOTIVATION
According to Gardner (1985),
motivation and attitudes are the
primary sources contributing to
individual language learning.
Gardner has described the
phenomenon of motivation as
consisting of four components: a
goal, effort, want, and attitudes
toward the learning activity.
LEARNING
Studies in this area point
STYLE
to the fact that an
individuals learning style
preferences influence the
type of LLSs they use
(Ehrman and Oxford,
1990; Rossi-Le, 1995;
among others).
Extroverts, for example,
show a strong preference
for social strategies,
while introverts use
metacognitive strategies
more frequently (Ehrman
and Oxford, 1990);
learners who favour
group study are shown to
use social and interactive
strategies, such as
working with peers or
GENDER
A number of studies
reported significantly more
use of learning strategies
than their male
counterparts (e.g. Goh &
Kwah, 1997; Factors
Affecting Language
Learning Strategy
Reported Usage 71 Green
& Oxford, 1995; Gu 2002).
These studies postulated
that female students used
Compensation and
Affective strategies more
frequently than male ones
males used learning
strategies more than
females when learning a
language (Tran, 1988;
Wharton, 2000).
