Exploring Affective Factors in

Second
Language Acquisition
Welcome to our presentation on the affective factors that influence second language acquisition. Join us
on a journey to discover how personal and emotional factors can shape language learning outcomes.
THE AFFECTIVE DOMAIN AND SELF-
ESTEEM
Five-step process proposed by an educational phycologist named Benjamin Bloom

Emotional Awareness: It begins with becoming aware of our surroundings and giving attention to
certain things.

Voluntary Response: We voluntarily engage with what we've noticed, often finding satisfaction in our
responses.

Forming Beliefs: We start to see the worth of objects, behaviors, or people and develop beliefs and
attitudes about them.

Organizing Values: These beliefs become organized into a system of values, and we establish a
hierarchy among them.

Self-ldentity: Over time, we develop a self-identity based on our values and beliefs, guiding our
actions and worldview

THREE LEVELS OF SELF STEEM:

1- Global self steem: Stable self-worth across situations.

2- Situational Self-Steem: varies by context (work, education, skills).

3- Task Self-Steem: Specific to certain tasks(academin, sport, skills).

Attribution Theory and Self-
Efficacy
Ability: This is about how good you are at something.
Effort: This is how hard you try.

Task Difficulty: This refers to how hard something is.

Luck: This refers to the external factors that influence the outcome of a
task or situation.
 Willingness to Communicate
Definition Importance of WTC

Willingness to communicate refers to an Students with higher WTC are more likely to
individual's tendency to engage in verbal practice their language skills outside of class,
communication in a second language. engage with their classmates, and display
greater motivation to learn the language.
Inhibition
Inhibition
Fear of making mistakes, self-
doubt, and negative past
experiences can all lead to
inhibition in language learning.
Applying these Concepts
Teachers can create a safe and
supportive classroom
environment that encourages
risk taking and minimizing the
stress and pressure associated
with language learning.
Risk-Taking
Risk-taking involves putting oneself in the position of potentially losing
somethingto achieve a goal. Classroom risk-taking can take many forms, such
as reaching out to new friends, trying a new method of note taking, or stepping
up to aleadership position in a group project
Anxiety
Anxiety is a feeling of fear, dread, and uneasiness. It might cause you to sweat,
feel restless and tense, and have a rapid heartbeat. It can be a normal reaction
to stress.
WALK A MILE IN THEIR
SHOES: EMPATHY,
EXTROVERSIO N, AND
INTROVERSION
WHAT IS EMPATHY?
Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. It's an
essential skill for building strong relationships and fostering a sense of
community. Research shows that people who are more empathetic tend to
have better mental health and overall well-being
 EXTROVERSION VS. INTROVERSION
When it comes to personality raits, extroversion and introversion are two of the most well-known.
Extroverts tend to be outgoing and social, while introverts are more reserved andintrospective. However,
both types can be empathetic and connect with others on a deep level.
Personality Type

types of individuals, whereas a personality trait reflects a person's pattern of
thought, feelings and behaviours.

• Introversion vs. extroversion

• Sensing vs. intuition
• Thinking vs. feeling
• Judging vs. perceiving
