The findings in the present study suggest a number of implications for second language teaching and teachers‟
training.
To begin with, teachers should take learners‟ affective factors into full consideration. The results obtained from the
study do provide convincing evidence that affective components have a considerable impact on the learners. The way in
which learners interpret affective factor information is the key to develop positive and valuable concepts of self-efficacy
about learning, which in turns leads to further effective learning. Appropriate teacher guidance and advice will
encourage stronger willingness to participate and greater effort to learn on the part of learners, and thereby greater
success in language performance. Thus, it is advisable for teachers to adopt some practical and effective techniques to
promote learners‟ affective development and hence get them actively involved in class activities.
It is suggested that more practical researches on affective factors should be carried out in SLA. Further research is
advised to investigate whether features of affective factors vary with individuals of the same proficiency level of
students. The different features hide deserve further exploration. Moreover, personal differences of students should be
given special attention in the further study. The differences in their choosing different teacher guidance would be an
interesting research topic.
