AB - This study statistically analyzed differences in learning strategy use among 103 working adult Japanese language learners in the learning stabilization stage, divided into a high-stabilization group (n=25) and a low-stabilization group (n=78). Six strategy types based on Oxford's (1990) SILL-memory, cognitive, compensation, metacognitive, affective, and social-were examined at both category and item levels. "Learning stabilization" is defined here not as a proficiency plateau, but as a state in which learners consistently implement learning plans suited to their own lifestyle within a JFL environment.
Both groups showed high use of metacognitive strategies, with no significant difference between them, suggesting that self-regulatory skills cultivated in professional life transfer into the learning context as a "common foundational factor" underlying stabilization. The most notable difference lay in the directionality of strategy selection. The high group selectively consolidated reconstruction and production-oriented cognitive strategies, expression substitution and utterance maintenance in compensation strategies, active emotional regulation in affective strategies, and autonomous expansion through cultural interest in social strategies. The low group showed higher use of input-centered cognitive strategies and other-dependent social strategies, such as requesting error correction and group study.
