The Influence of Reframing on Second Language Learning: A Study in Neurolinguistic Programming

    This study explores the impact of reframing, a core technique of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), on second language learning (SLL), focusing on reducing language anxiety and enhancing learner confidence and motivation. A quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test design was applied to a sample of 30 middle school students aged 10 to 15. Participants received a one-week NLP-based training centered on reframing strategies. Data were collected through structured language tasks and psychological surveys and analyzed using SPSS. The results showed significant improvements in learners' confidence, emotional regulation, and participation, along with a notable decrease in anxiety. These findings suggest that reframing positively influences both the emotional and cognitive aspects of language learning. This research highlights the value of incorporating psychologically informed strategies into language teaching, offering practical insights for educators seeking to foster supportive and effective learning environments.
