Existence of Integrative Motivation in an Asian EFL Setting
Abstract
Abstract: The major purpose of this study was to investigate the existence of distinct motivational groups within a population of Taiwan English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learners. Based on previous English as a Second Language (ESL) research, this study assumed the existence of both an integrative and an instrumental motivation. A hypothesized motivation, labeled “required,” was also tested for. A survey instrument was developed and completed by over 2000 non‐English majors at two educational institutions in Taiwan. This paper reports preliminary results from the first educational institution and includes the first wave of 500 responses. Exploratory factor analysis was employed to confirm the existence the motivational groups and to determine their temporal orientations (past, present, or future). Results did not support the existence of an integrative motivational group, but did find a strong required motivational group as well as an instrumental group. Lack of integrative motivation among Taiwan EFL learners has significance for language education in Taiwan, since most EFL classroom techniques are derived directly from Western ESL theory that assumes integration as one of the main motivations. Cultural influences on EFL settings are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
