- Abstract
Emotional intelligence (EI), intrinsic learning motivation (IM), and willingness to communicate (WTC) are among the factors that influence students' success in foreign language learning (FLL). However, the research concerning the association between these three factors is limited, especially those dealing with the EI subcomponents. In addition, there has been no report on the link between EI, IM, and WTC of the students learning Japanese and Korean as foreign languages. Therefore, this study investigated the relationships of EI of FLL university students with IM and with WTC. At the same time, it explored the potential of EI subcomponents to serve as predictors for IM and WTC. Using descriptive statistics, Pearson product-moment correlation, and stepwise regression, this study analyzed questionnaire responses from 78 FLL undergraduates. The results indicated that the students' EI positively correlated with their IM and WTC, and one of four EI subcomponents predicted IM and WTC. Meanwhile, the one-way ANOVA test indicated that no significant difference existed within groups of students learning English, Japanese, and Korean as foreign languages. These results suggested several meaningful implications.
