One-hundred-twenty-eight junior high school students in Toyama, Japan participated in the study and watched approximately five minutes of a YouTube video without subtitles. This was accompanied with comprehension tasks and pre- and post-viewing activities. A questionnaire was administered after the lessons, and factor analysis, single linear regression, and mediation analysis were carried out. The results of the analyses suggested that effective use of YouTube videos in EFL classrooms could increase students' motivation, while YouTube videos alone may not directly motivate students. The results also implied that YouTube videos could be effectively used for junior high school students to improve their motivation, though the actual causation was not revealed due to the limitations of the analyses., Article, 富山大学人間発達科学部紀要, 16巻1号, 2021.10.22, Page55-63}, pages = {55--63}, title = {The Relation Between Use of YouTube, Learner's Motivation, and Perception of Lessons in EFL Classrooms at a Junior High School}, volume = {16}, year = {2021} }
