Previous studies reported that beliefs can be productive or unproductive and influence learners\u2019 behaviour such as self-directed learning (SDL). The purpose of the study is to explore the learners\u2019 beliefs that adult immigrants hold about learning the Finnish language and their relation to SDL.\nThe participants in this qualitative research are three adult immigrants in Finland learning Finnish outside formal institutions. Learning diaries were collected from the participants for two to seven months. Triangulation was implemented using open-ended questionnaires and asynchronous email interviews. The data were analysed using thematic analysis, followed by relational analysis.\nFindings reveal that the set of learners\u2019 beliefs about Finnish language learning are (1) beliefs about self-sovereignty in language learning, (2) beliefs about volition situated in the learner\u2019s context, and (3) beliefs about language learning as an organic experience. These beliefs were interpreted from the participants\u2019 view about the importance of autonomous learning, sustaining motivation through effort, and second language learning in a natural way. The relational analysis results show that the relationship between the learners\u2019 beliefs and SDL are interactive and reciprocal.\nLearners\u2019 beliefs about learning the Finnish language independently are intricately linked to participants\u2019 self-concepts and identity. The results suggest that the influence of learners\u2019 situational context to learners\u2019 beliefs are significant in understanding the unique psychology of an individual language learner.", "language": "en", "element": "description", "qualifier": "abstract", "schema": "dc"}, {"key": "dc.description.provenance", "value": "Submitted by Paivi Vuorio (paelvuor@jyu.fi) on 2021-06-14T10:16:26Z\nNo. of bitstreams: 0", "language": "en", "element": "description", "qualifier": "provenance", "schema": "dc"}, {"key": "dc.description.provenance", "value": "Made available in DSpace on 2021-06-14T10:16:26Z (GMT).
