This paper explores the influence of learners’ L2 grit, which consists of perseverance of effort (PE) and consistency of interest (CI), on L2 Korean learning by analyzing its effect on L2 willingness to communicate (WTC) and foreign language anxiety among L2 Korean learners. Using a self-reported questionnaire, 243 Chinese-L1 learners provided valid data. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were performed to identify potential relationships between these four latent variables. The results indicated that both lower-level components of L2 grit positively predicted L2 WTC, but that PE’s predictive power was substantially more potent than that of CI. CI also emerged as a significant negative predictor of foreign language anxiety, whereas PE’s influence on foreign language anxiety could not be established. In addition, the negative impact of foreign language anxiety on L2 WTC was also confirmed.
Abstract
This paper explores the influence of learners’ L2 grit, which consists of perseverance of effort (PE) and consistency of interest (CI), on L2 Korean learning by analyzing its effect on L2 willingness to communicate (WTC) and foreign language anxiety among L2 Korean learners. Using a self-reported questionnaire, 243 Chinese-L1 learners provided valid data. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were performed to identify potential relationships between these four latent variables. The results indicated that both lower-level components of L2 grit positively predicted L2 WTC, but that PE’s predictive power was substantially more potent than that of CI. CI also emerged as a significant negative predictor of foreign language anxiety, whereas PE’s influence on foreign language anxiety could not be established. In addition, the negative impact of foreign language anxiety on L2 WTC was also confirmed.
