Objective: Emotional factors are consistently recognized as among the most influential in second/foreign language learning. This study aims to examine the effect of self-fulfilling prophecy on the motivation of non-Iranian Persian learners from the perspective of teachers and language learners of Persian.
Method: This research is categorized as applied in terms of its goal and as descriptive-survey in terms of its method. The statistical sample consists of 38 Persian language teachers from Persian language teaching centers across the country and 30 Persian learners from these centers during the academic years 2022-2023 (1402-1403 in the Iranian calendar). The measurement tools include a researcher-made questionnaire of 10 questions for teachers and an 8-question questionnaire for language learners, inspired by the models of Grimes (2009) and Rosenthal (2012).
Findings: Based on the results obtained from t-tests and significance tables for the indicators of self-fulfilling prophecy (Pygmalion) on accelerating the language learning process, it can be stated that the Pygmalion effect has a positive and significant impact on learners’ rapid acquisition of Persian.
