本文对外语焦虑与外语成绩之间的关系进行了元分析。调查了55个独立样本,参与者超过10,000人。研究发现,外语焦虑与外语成绩的总体相关系数为?.34(p<.01)。外语听力焦虑与外语听力成绩的相关性最强。与其他类型的焦虑相比,外语阅读焦虑和考试焦虑与外语成绩的相关性较弱。焦虑与成绩的相关性在不同外语水平的人群中保持稳定,这表明外语焦虑的作用不应被忽视,无论学习者是谁?熟练程度。与语言家族相比,词汇相似性对焦虑-成绩相关有更决定性的调节作用。然而,语言家族和词汇相似性可能会交互作用,影响焦虑与成绩的相关性。最后,元回归分析表明,年龄会影响外语学习焦虑与成绩的相关性。
This meta-analysis investigated the relationship between foreign language (FL) anxiety and FL performance. Fifty-five independent samples with more than 10,000 participants were surveyed. It was found that the overall correlation between FL anxiety and FL performance was ?.34 (p < .01). FL listening anxiety had the strongest correlation with FL listening performance. Both FL reading anxiety and test anxiety had a weaker correlation with FL performance as compared to other types of anxiety. The anxiety?performance correlation remained stable across groups with different FL proficiency levels, suggesting that the role of FL anxiety should not be ignored regardless of the FL learners? proficiency level. As compared to language family, lexical similarity was found to have a more decisive modulating effect on the anxiety?performance correlation. However, language family and lexical similarity may interact to affect the anxiety?performance correlation. Finally, a metaregression analysis showed that age could affect the correlation between FL anxiety and performance.
