Sabrina Wu defended her dissertation titled "Final defense" on January 7, 2013 in front of Dr. Teresa Hsu. The dissertation examined how learning motivation and reading strategies influence senior high EFL students' vocabulary learning through extensive reading. It involved administering questionnaires and think-aloud protocols to approximately 180 senior high students majoring in applied foreign language in Chunghwa. The results were analyzed to understand which motivations and strategies were most effective for vocabulary learning.
