Abstract
This paper examines the perceptions of one Chinese learner of English at a university. From a Dynamic System Theory (DST) perspective, the learner’s perceptions, affective experiences and classroom learning will be explored by identifying the
non-linear relationships between them. This paper aims to investigate the relationship between the learner’s perceived affective experiences and her self-reported performances in a foreign language classroom. The learner is a second-year university student from a foreign language university in China. Diary, questionnaire, semi-structured interview, and class observation were applied to investigate this 6-month longitudinal study. Emotional ambivalence including several different
affective patterns and four attractor states, namely, Integrative Disposition, Self-esteem, External Incentives and Autonomy were identified.
