Hai Phong, July 2021 Student Nguyen Thi Thuy CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION 1. Rationale Nowadays, with the trend of international integration, learning a foreign language is very necessary for people all over the world. However, learning a second language is not easy. Vietnamese’s learning English is no exception.They often finds difficult with thislanguage in all basic skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking.
Moreover, many people believe that vocabulary and grammar are the most difficult ones of English and they are also important to master four above skills. However, they often lack motivation in learning them. With the same opinion, a lot of HPU non – English majors often complain they get demotivation in learning vocabulary in the textbook Reward – pre- intermediate. They believe that little motivation may come from some difficulties while learning English vocabulary such as not knowing words, not being able to use words in context, not being able to pronounce words, etc.
From that situation, the researcher chose the topic “motivational factors affecting HPU second-year non-English majors in learning vocabulary” for the graduation paper. With the findings of the study, the researcher hopes that it will help students minimize their demotivation to learn vocabulary more effectively.

Theoretical backgrounds of motivation 2. The definition of motivation There has been a variety of theories of motivation over the course of decades of research. Harmer (1991)defined that “Motivation is some kind of internal drive that encourages somebody to pursue a course of action. If we receive a goal and if that goal is sufficiently attractive, we will be strongly motivated to do whatever is necessary to reach that goal.” Brown (1994) stated: “Motivation is the extent to which you make choice about goals to pursue and the effort you will devote to that pursuit”.
Dornyei and Otto (1998) claimed that “Motivation can be defined as the dynamically changing cumulative arousal in a person that initiates, directs, coordinates, amplifies, terminates, and evaluates the cognitive and motor processes whereby initial wishes and desires are selected, prioritized, operationalized and acted out. Types of motivation Most researchers (Gardner and Lambert: 1959, Harmer: 1983, Dörnyei: 1998) divided motivation into two types: integrative and instrumental motivation. According to Gardner and Lambert (1959), integrative motivation refers to a desire to become more like valued members of the target language community. It is based on interest in learning the second language because of their need to learn about, associate, or socialize with the people who use it or because of purpose intention to participate or integrate with the second language using the same language in that community.
While the instrumental motivation concerns practical values in learning the second language such as passing exams, financial rewards, furthering a career, or gaining promotion (Harmer: 1983; Garder and Lambert: 1959). It is a determination to acquire another language to achieve such goals as a good jab or social recognition (Gardner and Lambert, 1959). Another popular view on types of motivation divided motivation into extrinsic and intrinsic motivation.According to Harmer (1983), extrinsic motivation is related to the concept of goal. It is based on external outcomes 3 such as rewards and punishment.
This motivation could bring a negative impact to the students because with extrinsic motivation, students do not learn with their strong intention or will but they study it because they are pushed by the interest in the rewards or the punishment.While intrinsic motivation refers to the motivation to engage in an activity because that activity is enjoyable and satisfying to do. He states that intrinsic motivation plays by far the larger part in most students' success or failure as language learners". Because this type of motivation is from within the students, they are always willingly and voluntarily try to learn what they think is worth or important for them. The importance of motivation in second language learning Labonde (1982) concluded that motivation and attitudes were important factors, which help to determine the level of proficiency achieved by different leaners.
The effects of motivation appeared to be separated from the effects of aptitude. The most successful learners would be those who had both talent and high level of motivation of learning. Dorney (2001) described the process of model of language learning environment. He believed that motivation consisted of being generated; maintained actively and protected; and being retrospective evaluation.
Motivational factors in second language learning A lot of studies have shown that students' motivation in foreign language learning can be affected by many factors. In general, there are three main factors: learner- related factors, teacher – related factors and teaching and learning conditions.
