 note = {The purpose of this study was to investigate how Japanese students studying at a tertiary level of education as English majors perceive their usage of L1 (mother tongue/ first language) and L2 (foreign/ second language) in the classroom and to see if giving the students opportunities to report that perceived usage would result in a self-determined change in behaviour. It was postulated that the students would become more aware of their own actions through the report process, and would therefore autonomously decide to improve their behaviour or to maintain good behaviour over time, good behaviour being maximizing the usage of L2. The teacher, although using L2 only in the classroom, did not encourage or discipline the students to speak more L2 or less L1, it was left up to the student to decide this, therefore giving the students more autonomy., The purpose of this study was to investigate how Japanese students studying at a tertiary level of education as English majors perceive their usage of L1 (mother tongue/ first language) and L2 (foreign/ second language) in the classroom and to see if giving the students opportunities to report that perceived usage would result in a self-determined change in behaviour.
