Self-Regulation and Motivation reconsideration through Persian EFL Learners' Writing Achievement (11060301)

چکیده
The present study serves as an attempt to shed light on any probable effect of self-regulation and motivation on the writing performance of Persian EFL language learners. To achieve the purpose, two questionnaires (on self-regulation and motivation) were employed as study tools and were distributed among 80 Persian EFL language learners. They were also required to write an essay. Analyzing the gathered data, the results revealed a strong, positive relationship between each of the variables of the study (self-regulation and motivation) and the writing performance of learners, and also between motivation and self-regulation. The study further showed that motivation is a better predictor, compared to self-regulation, of their writing performance.
