摘 要
外语学习中情感问题一直受到研究者们的关注。过去先后出现的教学法如暗示法，沉默法，社团语言学习法，全身反应法等都特别强调语言学习中的情感问题。20世纪70年代以来，语言教学研究的重点从研究教师如何转向教学习者如何学，其中一个重要研究领域是—情感，这一造成学习结果差异的学习者个体因素。研究表明，外语学习受性别，年龄，个性特点，学习环境，语言学能，学习态度，情感因素，认知风格和学习策略等诸多因素的影响。情感因素，如语言焦虑，学习动机，自尊心，自信心，移情和抑制等，直接影响到学习者的学习行为和学习效果，其影响和作用是不可低估和忽视的。积极情感有利于激发外语学习者学习语言的兴趣和动力，发挥其学习潜能，克服语言焦虑和心理抑制，对外语学习产生积极作用。文章分析了学习动机，语言焦虑，自信心，自尊心，抑制对外语习得的影响，提出培养积极情感，降低消极情感的策略。 更重要的是本文着重强调和分析了情感因素之一――情感因素与外语学习的关系。因此，文章在分析了学习动机，语言焦虑，自信心，自尊心，抑制对外语习得的影响后，提出了培养积极情感，降低消极情感的策略。

Abstract
During foreign language learning, researchers always pay more attention to affective factors. In the past, there were many teaching methods, such as implied method, silence method, mass organizations languages learning method, and reaction method, all of which are emphasized by the affective factors of languages learning. Since 1970, the emphasis of languages teaching has turned to how teachers teach the learners’ learning. The important research field is affect, which is the individual factor that was caused by every learner. Research shows that foreign languages learning is affected by sex, age, character, learning environment, language ability, learning attitude, affective factors, cognitive style and learning strategy of the learners. Affective factors, such as language anxiety, learning motivation, self-esteem, self-confidence and inhibition, will directly affect learner’s learning action and learning results, and its effects and action is underestimated and ignored. Positive affect has the advantage of stimulating the learner’s interest and motivation in foreign language learning, bringing learning potential into play, surmounting languages anxiety and psychological inhibition, playing an active role in foreign languages learning. The thesis analyzes the learning motivation, languages anxiety, confidence, self-esteem, inhibition, and puts forward measures for cultivating positive affect and reducing negative affect. Importantly, the thesis also puts emphasis on the relationship between affective factors and foreign languages learning.
