Abstract

This research is an attempt to determine the relationship between English language
learning motivations and cultural and economic capital in EFL learners in Yasuj language
institutes in 2013-2015. A questionnaire was used to collect the data. The content validity of the
questionnaire was approved by English language experts and its reliability was determined
using Cronbach Alpha (Motivation= 0.71, Cultural capital= 0.89, Economic capital= 0.81). The
results revealed that cultural capital had an impact on motivation of English language learners.
Economic capital was not effective on English language learning motivation in Yasuj Language
Institutes.
