A Study on Motivation Orientations of English Learners in Management Major
Xu Wei and Zhang Yi
Abstract—Based on the motivation theory, this study aims to
investigate the motivational orientations of the English learners
from Management majors. 32 graduate students participated in
the questionnaire and accomplished the interview in this
research. Based on the statistics processed by SPSS, it is found
that (1) instrumental orientation is significantly stronger than
the integrative type; (2) among all the motivation items, the
most three significant motivations are preparing for a future
career, desiring to be a knowledgeable person and passing
exams. Besides, based on the analysis of interview, a model of
major-oriented, international and nested systems of
instrumental motivation was constructed, indicating the
interrelationship between motivational factors: globalization,
social expectation, university policy, major needs and learner
factors. It is expected that this study can provide some
implications to English teaching to management students with
the investigation of the systematic structure of their
motivations.
Index Terms—Motivation orientation, management major, nested model.
