Sažetak
The present study is explores the role that self-regulated vocabulary learning may play in lexical competence of learners of English as a foreign language. There are two research questions that the study attempts to answer: (1) Is there a correlation between students’ self-regulatory capacity for vocabulary learning and lexical diversity, density and sophistication of their writing?, and (2) How much of the variance in lexical competence scores can be explained by the five dimensions of self- regulation in vocabulary learning (i.e. commitment control, metacognitive control, satiation control, emotion control and environmental control): Which of these facets is a better predictor of each of the indicators of lexical competence, i.e. a) lexical diversity, b) lexical density, and c) lexical sophistication? The results suggest that students with a higher lexical competence (operationalised as the three measures of lexical richness) are not those who perceive themselves as being more highly self- regulated in vocabulary learning and vice versa, those students who achieved higher scores on the self-regulation instrument did not produce lexically richer texts. Accordingly, the regression analyses ran with the selected lexical measures as dependent variables showed that self-regulation as measured by SRCvoc is not a predictor of lexical competence. These findings imply that factors other than selfregulation as conceptualised in the SRCvoc might have stronger influence on lexical proficiency.
