Özet

Bu çalışma, Türk öğrencilerinin cinsiyet farklarının, onların yabancı dil öğrenimine yönelik tutum ve güdüleri üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektedir. Çalışma özellikle şu etkenleri içermektedir: Öğrencilerin Amerikalı ve ingilizlere yönelik tutumları, güdü yoğunlukları, genel olarak tüm yabancı dillere olan ilgileri, ingilizce öğrenmeye karşı tutumları, araçlı ve bütünleyici oryantasypn, ingilizce sınıfı endişesi, aileden gelen teşvik, ingilizce öğretmeni ve ingilizce dersine olan tutum. Araştırmada Gardner'ın (1985) geliştirdiği Tutum Güdü Ölçeği uyarlanarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçları, erkek öğrencilerle karşılaştırıldığında ve aşağıda belirtilen etmenler göz önüne alındığında, kızlarınn güdülerinin daha yüksek olduğunu göstermiştir: İngilizlere yönelik tutumlar, güdü yoğunluğu, ingilizce ve diğer dilleri öğrenmeye yönelik tutumlar, bütünleyici güdü ve ingilizce öğretmenine yönelik tutumlar. Diğer etmenlerle cinsiyet farkının arasında hiçbir ilişki bulunmamıştır.
