摘 要:基于Layder的社会科学框架理论和文献分析,研究提出了大学生英语学习动机减退的概念模型,在此基础上编制了大学生英语学习动机减退量表。量表涵盖4个维度23个因子共66个题项。研究采用了3个独立样本来检验量表的结构和质量。探索性因子分析和验证性因子分析支持了量表的概念模型, 即大学生英语学习动机减退概念是一个由学习者自我、学习情境、情境活动和宏观环境构成的四维概念。研究结果表明,大学生英语学习动机减退量表结构合理,具有较高的信度和效度,可以测量大学生英语学习动机减退现象。

Abstract: Based on Layer's social science framework theory and literature analysis, this paper proposes a conceptual model of college Students' motivation decline in English learning, and develops a scale of college Students' motivation decline in English learning. The scale includes 4 dimensions, 23 factors and 66 items. Three independent samples were used to test the structure and quality of the scale. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) support the conceptual model of the scale, that is, the concept of college Students' English learning motivation decline is a four-dimensional concept composed of learners' self, learning situation, situational activities and macro environment. The results show that the scale has reasonable structure, high reliability and validity, and can be used to measure the decline of college students' English learning motivation.

英语学习动机一直是外语教育领域重点关注的话题之一。20世纪90年代,对英语学习动机的研究发生了转向:研究者开始关注学习者外语学习动机的减退(Demotivation)现象,也有学者译为负动机。
国外学者首先审视导致外语学习者学习动机减退的各类诱因,逐步完善并建立了动机减退理论。Dornyei(1998)提出了外语学习动机三层次理论,该理论强调教师应该从学习环境对学习者的学习动机进行激发。他进一步认为,研究者会“不可避免地要关注外语教育情境下的一个显著现象——外语学习动机减退(Demotivation)”[1]。从语言学习的角度看,动机减退现象指由于内部原因或者外部因素的单方面或者共同影响,学习者的语言学习动机出现了减退甚至缺失,学习行为出现了下滑甚至严重后退。……
