英语自我概念及英语语音自我概念对中国初中生英语成绩的影响

论文摘要

在二语习得领域,自我概念作为情感因素中的重要组成部分,对外语教学活动有显著的影响。本文通过对英语自我概念和英语语音自我概念的研究,揭示英语自我概念及英语语音自我概念与中国初中生英语成绩的关系。本文的研究问题为:1.初中英语学习者的英语自我概念及英语语音自我概念从初一到初三呈现怎样的发展趋势?2.初中英语学习者的英语成绩与他们的英语自我概念及英语语音自我概念是否相关?如果是,那么从初一到初三他们的相关程度呈现怎样的发展趋势?3.男生和女生在英语自我概念、英语语音自我概念方面是否存在显著差异?本研究通过调查问卷的形式对淄博桓台实验中学60名初一到初三的中学生的英语自我概念、英语语音自我概念进行了研究。作者在每个年级的9班分别抽十名男生和十名女生来完成问卷,然后对问卷进行整理并使用SPSS16.0统计软件对数据进行分析。调查发现:1.初中英语学习者的英语自我概念和英语语音自我概念从初一到初三整体上呈现减弱的趋势。2.初中生的英语成绩与他们的英语自我概念及英语语音自我概念都有显著程度的相关,但是从初一到初三,学生的英语自我概念及英语语音自我概念与其英语成绩的相关系数分别呈现下降趋势。英语成绩与英语自我概念的相关系数要高于英语成绩与英语语音自我概念的相关系数。3.男生和女生在英语自我概念和英语语音自我概念方面存在显著差异。女生的英语自我概念和英语语音自我概念都要高于男生。
