Hello Jurana Aziz,
For decades,the bulk of research addressing intrinsic motivation (IM) has revealed that it is a powerful engine for learner development. The psychological evidence related to IM supports the advantages it offers to SLA learners.For one thing, learners with intrinsic motivation enjoy a high level of grit- a persistent perseverance for attaining learning goals. Another thing is that by conscious engagement, such individuals make a better use of learning strategies and their cognitive abilities since they exploit their creative abilities more effectively.
Best regards,
R. Biria
