Prof. Dr. rongdara@hotmail.com k.wilaiwan@gmail.com ksinwong@gmail.com Learning-related behavior Language learning motivation Engineering undergraduates Symposium of International Language & Knowledge (SiLK 2014), 14th-16th Feb 2014 was held at Hydro Hotel, Penang organized by Centre for International Languages, Universiti Malaysia Perlis. this study aimed at investigating the relationship between engineering undergraduates language learning motivation and their learning-related behavior, with a comparison between students of both genders. The sample included 98 engineering undergraduate students from Universiti Malaysia Perlis, attending the Foundation English course in 2013. The instruments included a set of questionnaire and two parallel vertsions of the Quick Placement Test (QPT) provided by University Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate. The collected data were analyzed by Pearson's correlation and t-test. The findings indicated that learners' learning-related behavior had a positive relationship with their language learning motivation, both as a whole and individually, with significant correlation at the 0.01 level. In addition, male and female students were not significantly different in their motivation to learn English. 2014-05-22T07:57:23Z 2014-05-22T07:57:23Z 2014-02 Working Paper http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/dspace/handle/123456789/34641 en Proceeding of Symposium of International Language & Knowledge (SiLK 14);2014 Universiti Malaysia Perlis Centre of International Languages |
