İngilizce hazırlık sınıflarındaki öğrencilerin başarı duyguları, bıl̇gıẏ e yönelik merakı ve ders başarısı
Bu araştırmanın amacı, İngilizce hazırlık sınıflarındaki üniversite öğrencilerinin İngilizce derslerine ilişkin başarı duyguları, bilgiye yönelik merakları ve ders başarıları arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesidir. Araştırmada açımlayıcı ilişkisel desen benimsenmiştir. Araştırmaya İngilizce hazırlık sınıflarındaki toplam 475 öğrenci gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları, İngilizce ders başarısının hem yoksunluk hissi olarak merak hem de ilgi hissi olarak merak tarafından anlamlı düzeyde ve olumlu yönde yordandığını göstermiştir. Bulgular ayrıca, İngilizce ders başarısının kaygı ve can sıkıntısı tarafından anlamlı düzeyde, ancak olumsuz yönde yordandığını da göstermiştir.
