초록

This study investigated Uzbek study-abroad students’ motivation and intercultural competence in relation to their achievement in L2 Korean. A total of 57 Uzbek adult learners of L2 Korean participated in the study. Their motivational intensity and intercultural competence were measured through previously attested questionnaires, and their L2 proficiency was assessed through oral interviews administered by two experienced Korean language teachers. The results revealed that intercultural competence was a significant predictor of L2 proficiency while motivation did not contribute much to L2 development. Those with higher intercultural competence were likely to achieve more in all linguistic domains but pronunciation than those with lower competence. Contrary to popular belief, interest in Korean culture and positive attitudes toward Koreans appeared not to link directly with Uzbek students’ ability to learn Korean.

Abstract

The results revealed that intercultural competence was a significant predictor of L2 proficiency while motivation did not contribute much to L2 development. Those with higher intercultural competence were likely to achieve more in all linguistic domains but pronunciation than those with lower competence. Contrary to popular belief, interest in Korean culture and positive attitudes toward Koreans appeared not to link directly with Uzbek students’ ability to learn Korean.
