Çalışma, beşli Likert ölçeğinde 43 maddeden oluşan bir anket uygulanarak, 2018-2019 eğitim öğretim yılında Bartın Üniversitesi Dil Eğitim ve Öğretim Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezi'nde okuyan 30 yabancı öğrenciyle gerçekleştirildi. Anketteki maddeler, Dörnyei ve Csizér 2006 ve Ryan 2005 tarafından yakın zamanda tasarlanmış bir anketten seçilmiştir. Çalışmanın amacı olarak kullanılan alanlar: bütünlük, bütünleşme, ikinci öğrenilen dil topluluğuna tutum, kültürel ilgi, Türkçe öğrenmeye yönelik tutum, ölçüt önlemleri, ideal ikinci dil öz, kendi kendine ikinci dil edinimi özeti, aile etkisi, araçsallık tanıtım ve önleme ve asimilasyon korkusu. Toplanan veriler SPSS istatistik programında tanımlayıcı istatistikler kullanılarak analiz edildi. Sonuçlar, Yabancı birinci sınıf üniversite öğrencilerinin, enstrümantal nedenlerden ötürü, ikinci bir dil olarak Türkçe öğrendiklerini ve ayrıca, bütünleştirici motivasyonun, bir dereceye kadar katılımcılar için baskın motivasyonel yönelim olduğunu göstermiştir
