The purpose of this study was to identify the internal structure of L2 motivation and examine how motivational factors affect students’ motivated behavior using structural equation modeling (SEM). It also examines students' motivation changes over time. A total of 274 Korean EFL middle school students (143 boys and 131 girls) were participated. The data were collected at two time points during an academic semester to explore the changes that characterized the participants' L2 motivation between the two phases of the survey. Results of the SEM analyses indicated that students' ideal L2 self perception was the strongest predictor of their motivated behavior in learning the L2 throughout the semester. But their ought-to L2 self concept was not a significant determinant of their motivation. It was also found that students' perceptions about the international status of English and their parents' views on the importance of English learning were only indirectly related to their motivated learning behavior through the mediating effects of idealized images of themselves as successful English learners.
