Sažetak
This article deals with the role of affective factors in foreign language learning and with their influence on the choice of language learning strategies when learning a foreign language. Even though language learning strategies have been the main centre of interest among researchers, there is still inconsistency present in using basic terminology regarding the definitions of strategies. This study describes some definitions of language learning strategies. The choice of strategies, among others, also depends on the influence of affective factors such as motivation, anxiety, attitude, attribution and self-awareness. The study describes the relation between these factors and strategies along with giving an insight into recently conducted research. We conclude that there are fewer studies that deal with the relation of affective factors and language learning strategies than those dealing with cognitive factors and strategies. Even though there is not much research on the field we believe that affective factors affect the choice of strategies and their quantity, thus indirectly having an effect on foreign language acquisition.
