Abstract

In the field of educational psychology, the concept of self-determination theory (SDT) was launched in the mid-1980s and has been applied in many educational fields, including language learning. The main concept of SDT postulates that the way people regulate their behaviour can be shaped by external factors, such as rewards, but that their ability to regulate their behaviour can subsequently become internalized. In this paper, the structure of different types of regulation, three major psychological needs to maximize students' motivation and practical ideas for practitioners to utilize in order to promote students' regulation are investigated.
