Abstract

This research investigates the motivational factors influencing English reading comprehension among 101 grade 12 students, utilizing Dörnyei's L2 Motivational Self-System (L2MSS) to analyze the roles of Ideal L2 Self (ILS), Ought-to L2 Self (OLS), and Learning Experience (LE). The study employed a quantitative correlational design. Data were gathered via a motivation survey and the Quick Placement Test (QPT), then analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and the Rasch Model to verify construct validity and test the hypothesized relationships. Findings indicate that ILS has a beneficial effect on LE, yet shows a negative correlation with reading comprehension, implying that idealized self-perceptions might obstruct performance. OLS exert a beneficial effect on both LE and Reading comprehension, underscoring the importance of balancing intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. LE shows a strong correlation with ILS and OLS, yet it does not directly influence reading comprehension, suggesting that other elements might be involved. Results emphasize the complex nature of motivation in reading comprehension and the significance of nurturing educational settings that align students’ objectives with attainable results.

Abstract

This study explores the relationship between emotional intelligence and English learning motivation in high school students in Metro City, Lampung. This study uses a quantitative design with a correlational approach. Data were collected through a questionnaire adapted from the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue) and Gardner's Attitude and Motivation Test Battery (AMTB) to measure emotional intelligence and intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. The sample of this study involved more than 300 students from several public and private high schools in Metro City who were selected randomly. The results of the analysis show that emotional intelligence has a significant positive relationship with extrinsic motivation (63%), but does not significantly affect motivation, with a negative contribution of -11%. In contrast, extrinsic motivation has a very strong influence on the intrinsic motivation of 94%. The instruments used in this study showed sufficient validity and reliability, although the convergent validity for the intrinsic motivation instrument still requires further development. This study provides important insights for educators to pay attention to extrinsic motivation factors in supporting English learning, as well as the importance of an individual approach to improving the balance between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.
