What is "integrative motivation"?
Integrative motivation refers to the desire to learn a language to connect with and integrate into the culture and community of its speakers. This motivation arises from a personal interest in engaging socially, culturally, or professionally with those who use the language. Learners with integrative motivation seek to understand cultural nuances and build relationships, enhancing their language learning experience. This contrasts with instrumental motivation, which focuses on learning a language for practical benefits, such as career advancement. Integrative motivation fosters a deeper emotional connection to the language and its speakers.
