Apstrakt

U ovom radu ispituju se veze između stavova koje učenici imaju prema kulturi i zajednici govornika izvornog, odnosno ciljnog jezika i uspeha koji postižu u učenju jezika. Teorijsku pozadinu rada čine socio-psihološke teorije etničkog identiteta, koje operišu konceptima etnocentrizma i anomije, kako bi objasnile mehanizme društvene identifikacije i kontraidentifikacije kod pojedinaca. Cilj istraživanja bila je provera održivosti sledećih hipoteza: (1) između etnocentrizma i uspeha u učenju postoji negativna povezanost, (2) veza između jezičkog etnocentrizma i uspeha u učenju je takođe negativna i (3) između anomije i uspeha u učenju postoji pozitivno orijentisana veza. Uzorak u istraživanju činilo je 112 studenata Filozofskog fakulteta u Novom Sadu koji su pohađali kurs iz engleskog jezika kao izbornog predmeta. Podaci su prikupljeni tokom redovnih časova nastave putem upitnika, koji je merio varijable etnocentrizma, jezičkog etnocentrizma i anomije. Rezultati su dali delimičnu potvrdu početnih hipoteza, te sugerišu da stavovi prema kulturi i društvu, posebno oni stavovi koje učenici imaju prema sopstvenoj kulturi, mogu da imaju uticaja na učenje jezika.
