Toward a Social Psychological Model of Strategy Use.
MacIntyre, Peter D.
Foreign Language Annals, v27 n2 p185-95 Sum 1994
Describes an alternate view of language learning strategies that limits their application to those behaviors that are intentional and freely chosen. A model is presented that postulates that for strategies to be used, students must be aware of one or more appropriate strategies, have reason to use them, have no impediments to their use, and should experience rewards for using them.
