This document summarizes a longitudinal nationwide survey conducted in Hungary in 1993 and 1999 that examined how sociocultural changes affected school children's attitudes and motivation towards learning five languages: English, German, French, Italian, and Russian. Over 4,700 pupils participated in 1993 and over 3,800 participated in 1999. The survey explored changes in integrativeness, instrumentality, contact with speakers, cultural interest, and perceptions of the vitality of different language communities between the two time periods. The conclusions indicated generally homogeneous attitudes towards languages but some gender and geographical variation, and that integrativeness continued to play a key role in language motivation.

INDEX 1. Aim of the research 2. Theoretical Background 3. Research Design 4. Methodology 5. Data Collection 6. Conclusions 1. Aim of the research
● To examine how the sociocultural changes
happening in Hungary in the 90s affected school children's attitudes and motivation concerning five languages: – English, German, French, Italian and Russian. 2. Theoretical background
● From the 90s onwards:
– Studies on motivation in classroom events and processes. – Dynamic character and temporal variation of motivation. ● Current research: – To explore motivational processes over time. – Broad societal macro-processes 3. Research Design ● 2 surveys: – 1993 and 1999. – The same target population. ● Main issues in the surveys: – A comparison of the five target languages. – The dynamics of attitudinal/motivational changes between 1993 and 1999. – Gender-based variation – Geographical variation 4. Methodology ● Participants: – 4,765 pupils in 1993. – 3,828 pupils in 1999. – Age 13/14. – Final year of primary school: they had to decide which foreign language to study. – Different regions. ● Instrument: Questionnaire about the 5 target languages and about 6 L2 communities. 5. Data Collection ● Five dimensions underlying motivation: 1. Integrativeness: positive outlook on the L2 and its culture. 2. Instrumentality: pragmatics benefit of the L2. 3. Direct contact with L2 speakers: travelling. 4. Cultural interest: cultural products by the media of the L2 community. 5. Vitality of the L2 community: opinion about importance and wealth of the L2 community. 6. Conclusions ● The participants' disposition towards a particular L2 and L2 community is quite homogeneous. ● 'Language globalization' process. ● The increased contact with foreigners did not result in an improved perception. ● An active engagement in L2 learning results in a positive influence in the learner's L2 attitudes and motivation. ● Integrativeness is a key role in L2 motivation. ● Male/female differences in language preferences. ● Geographical variation in L2 attitudes and motivation caused by geopolitical reasons.
