Kata Csizér (born 1971) is a Hungarian linguist.[2] She is currently a professor at the Department of English Applied Linguistics of the School of English and American Studies at Eötvös Loránd University, Hungary.[3][4] Her research focuses on applied linguistics with a special focus on motivation in second-language learning and teaching students with special needs. She is noted for her work on the inclusion of deaf learners into the foreign language classroom.[5]

Career

Csizér obtained her BA degree in language teaching from the Eötvös Loránd University in 1998. Between 1994 and 1999 she attended the Institute of Sociology of the Eötvös Loránd University.

In 2000, one of her first publications was on history in which she investigated the change of the regime on the three Visegrád Group countries namely, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Hungary.[6]

Csizér obtained her PhD degree at the Eötvös Loránd University in 2004 and she started her academic career at the Eötvös Loránd University in 2004. Csizér has been an associate professor at the Department of English Applied Linguistics of the School of English and American Studies at the Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest since. In 2012 she obtained a Habilitation degree at the Eötvös Loránd University.[7] Csizér has been the associate editor of the Journal of Second Language Writing.[8]

In 2018, she was invited keynote speaker at Faculty of Arty and Social Sciences of the National University of Singapore along with Phil Benson, Kimberly Noels and Xiaohong Wen.[9]

Research

Motivation

Csizér and Dörnyei argued that language learning motivation is a complex construct. They evaluated a proposed theoretical model concerning the internal structure of the second language motivation complex and its effects on motivated behaviour by using structural equation modelling. The main results of their study was that integrativeness might be the single most important factor, subsuming the effects of all the other responses to questions asked.[10]

In an article published in The Modern Language Journal, Csizér argued along with the co-authors Judit Kormos and Ágnes Sarkadi, that goals, attitudes, and motivation might be seen as a closely interconnected co-adaptive system, in which change in one of these motivational constructs also trigger change in the other closely related constructs. Their article was one of the first manuscripts which attempted to analyze motivation from a Complex Dynamic Systems Theory perspective.[11]

Csizér claimed, along with Judit Kormos in article published in TESOL Quarterly in 2014, that strong instrumental goals and international posture, along with positive future self‐guides, might be the prerequisites for use of effective self‐regulatory strategies, which in turn might have an important role in influencing autonomous use of traditional and computer‐assisted learning resources.[12]

Deaf learners

Another research area in which Csizér advanced the field of applied linguistics is the language learning of deaf learners. Along with Kontráné Hegybíró and Piniel, they wrote the first book on the deaf learners' language learning.[13][14]

Publications

Csizér has publications in several major journals such as Applied Linguistics, Language Teaching Research, The Modern Language Journal, Language Learning, System, English Teaching Forum, International Journal of Applied Linguistics, Studies in Second Language Learning and Teaching. Her regular co-authors are Zoltán Dörnyei, Judit Kormos and Katalin Piniel.
