چکیده مقاله:

The present study attempts to investigate students' motivations in reading English and finds out how they are influenced by their attitudes towards reading in English. Moreover, it aims at gaining an insight to the values English learners assign to different motivational factors. To do this, 67 female students of Islamic Azad University, Falavarjan Branch were asked to answer a questionnaire. They were majoring in Biochemistry. In order to gather the required data, a 5-point Likert-scale questionnaire was distributed among the participants. The analysis of the data showed that the students' motivation to read in English mostly depends on external factors such as Exam-related extrinsic motivation and interest in written material. Family attitudes and intrinsic motivation in reading were also influencing at the same level. However: instrumental motivation was rated as the least influential factor.
