Abstract

Language learning motivation is an important factor in language achievement. The study of socioeconomic status with other individual differences is a neglected area in language learning motivation research in Pakistan. The Socioeconomic status (SES) is also an important element in learning as the students with high SES tend to demonstrate a more positive attitude and motivation towards learning a language as compared to the students with low SES in Pakistan. The present study highlights the importance of SES and motivation in language learning. The data have been collected from different intermediate level students and analyzed with SPSS XIV. The results have produced some interesting findings.
