Overview

Correlation analysis reveals self-determined motivation significantly enhances engagement in L2 learning, indicating strong implications for pedagogical approaches using GenAI.

Key Points

  • Self-determined motivation was strongly linked to behavioral, cognitive, and emotional engagement in L2 learning.
  • Nearly 80% of variance in engagement dimensions was explained by autonomous motivation, particularly in Japanese university students.
  • Employing self-determination theory, the study utilized a questionnaire from 98 participants to analyze motivation and engagement.
  • Findings underscore the importance of autonomous motivation, highlighting the role of educators in promoting L2 learning with generative AI.
