Abstract

This study examines the academic motivation, in a Turkish context, of Turkish pre-service English teachers to contribute field research. Students (n=287) completed the Academic Motivation Scale (AMS) and a demographic questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, a one-way ANOVA, independent sample t-test, and Pearson product moment correlation. In this research, first and fourth year students were found be more motivated than second and third year students and third year students were the least motivated group. Both genders had similar motivational levels and the intrinsic motivation was an indicator of academic performance.

Özet

Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de akademik güdülenmeyi ölçen araştırmalara katkıda bulunmak için, Türk İngiliz Dili öğretmen adaylarının akademik güdülenmesi incelemektedir. Öğrenciler, (n=287) Akademik Güdülenme Ölçeği (AGÖ) ve demografik bilgi anketini doldurmuşlardır. Verilerin analizinde betimleyici istatistik, tek yönlü ANOVA, bağımsız örnek t-test, ve Pearson product moment korelasyon kullanılmıştır. Bu araştırmada, birinci ve dördüncü sınıf öğrencileri, ikinci ve üçüncü sınıf öğrencilerinden daha güdülenmiş bulunmuştur. İki cinsiyetin arasında benzer güdülenme derecesi saptanmış ve içsel güdülenmenin akademik başarının bir ölçütü olduğu bulgulanmıştır.
