| Abstract | This quantitative study was aimed to determine whether there was a significant relationship between Grade 6 students’ motivation and self-efficacy for learning Chinese as a foreign language (CFL) with their Chinese academic achievement at a private school in Bangkok. All 88 Grade 6 students, enrolled in the target school during the academic year 2022-2023, participated in the study. The Questionnaire of Chinese Learning Motivation, the Questionnaire of Chinese Self-Efficacy and the Chinese Midterm Exam for November 2022 were used for data collection. Data analysis was conducted through descriptive statistics (i.e., frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations) and multiple correlational analyses of the collected data. From the data analysis, it was found that:1. the participants held a partially high level of motivation for learning CFL;2. the level of self-efficacy for learning CFL held by Grade 6 students at the target school was interpreted as neither high nor low; 3. the participants’ level of Chinese academic achievement was very good; and4. there was a significant (α = .05) and moderately multiple strong correlation between the participants’ motivation and self-efficacy for learning CFL with their Chinese academic achievement, and this combination of variables accounted for 33% of the variance of participants’ Chinese academic achievement. |
