Research on the Generation Mechanism of English Learning Motivation from the Perspective of Philosophical Cultural Identity
In the context of increasingly globalization and cross-cultural communication, the sustainable stimulation of English learning motivation has become a core issue in the field of second language acquisition. Philosophical cultural identity, as the unified entity of an individual's cognition, emotions, and value judgments towards their own culture and that of others, has a profound impact on the generation and maintenance of English learning motivation. This paper, based on the Self-Determination Theory and the Cultural Adaptation Theory, starts from the dual dimensions of philosophical cultural identity, namely, native language cultural identity and English cultural identity, and systematically analyzes the intrinsic driving logic of these two aspects on English learning motivation. Then, it constructs a motivation generation mechanism model of "cognitive construction - emotional resonance - value empowerment", and finally proposes a motivation optimization path of "dual-culture collaborative immersion", aiming to provide practical theoretical support and practical references for achieving the organic unity of instrumental and humanistic aspects in English teaching.
