Abstract

In recent years, educational policies have focused on promoting bilingualism in schools. This brings with it new challenges for the consolidation of communicative habits and English language proficiency among students. Thus, the aim of this study is to analyse the influence of psychological needs satisfaction on students' resilience and confidence in exhibiting communicative intention. The participants in the study were 786 secondary school students (406 were boys and 380 were girls). The analyses employed in the study were reliability analyses, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation and bivariate correlations) and structural equation modelling. The results revealed that satisfaction of psychological needs was positively associated with resilience and confidence. Furthermore, resilience was positively associated with willingness to communicate in English. These results can help to foster teaching strategies and design educational programmes that strengthen students' abilities, skills and confidence for everyday English language use in the classroom and in other contexts.

中学生心理需求的满足程度、抗挫折能力、自信心和用英语交流的意愿

近年来，教育政策的重点是在学校推广双语教学。这对巩固学生的交际习惯和英语水平提出了新的挑战。因此，本研究旨在分析心理需求满足对学生表现交际意向的应变能力和信心的影响。本研究的参与者为 786 名中学生（其中男生 406 人，女生 380 人）。研究采用的分析方法包括信度分析、描述性统计（均值、标准差和双变量相关）和结构方程模型。结果显示，心理需求的满足与复原力和自信心呈正相关。此外，复原力与英语交流意愿呈正相关。这些结果有助于制定教学策略和设计教育方案，加强学生在课堂和其他环境中日常使用英语的能力、技能和信心。
