| metadata.dc.description.other-abstract: | This study aimed at 1) exploring the level of students’ success and failure attribution and self-efficacy and 2) investigating the relationship between success and failure attribution, self-efficacy among Chinese junior high school students. The success and failure attributions were categorized into two aspects: the internal and the external attributions. A school in Shizong, China, was purposively selected, and 110 junior high school students from this school were recruited as research participants. The study was a correlational study and supported by qualitative study based on semistructured interview. The results showed that students in the high proficiency group showed high level of internal attributions (x̅ = 4.35) and self-efficacy (x̅ = 3.90), students in the medium proficiency group showed high level of internal attributions (x̅ = 3.69) and self-efficacy (x̅ = 3.56), whereas students in the low proficiency group showed moderate (x̅ = 2.82) level of internal attributions and low self-efficacy (x̅ = 2.44). The external attributions of the students at all three levels of English proficiency were at a moderate level. The correlation between success and failure attributions and self-efficacy varied among students with different levels of English proficiency. The data from the semi-interviews provided some evidence to support the results of the questionnaire. The results of the semi-structured interviews confirmed that the relationship between success and failure attributions and self-efficacy varied among junior high school students with different levels of English proficiency. In addition, there are many problems in Chinese students' English learning methods. |
