Due to the fact that English as a foreign language (EFL) students' academic self-concept is of high importance for their academic motivation, academic achievement, and L2 success, many investigations have been done to uncover the personal and interpersonal factors that may contribute to students' academic self-concept. Yet, the emotional and psychological factors have rarely been studied. In addition, no empirical and review study has been carried out to probe into the impact of positive mood and future outlook on EFL students' academic self-concept. Accordingly, the current review study seeks to illustrate the effects of positive mood and future outlook on EFL students' academic self-concept. Building upon the principles of positive psychology (PP), the favorable effects of positive mood and future outlook on EFL students' academic self-concept were thoroughly explained. The educational implications and suggestions for future research are also highlighted.
由于将英语作为外语（EFL）学习的学生的学业自我概念对其学习动机、学业成绩和第二语言学习的成功至关重要，因此人们进行了许多调查，以揭示可能影响学生学业自我概念的个人因素和人际因素。然而，情感和心理因素很少被研究。此外，尚未开展实证研究和综述研究来探究积极情绪和未来展望对英语外语学生学业自我概念的影响。因此，当前的综述研究旨在阐述积极情绪和未来展望对英语外语学生学业自我概念的影响。基于积极心理学（PP）的原则，深入解释了积极情绪和未来展望对英语外语学生学业自我概念的积极影响。同时也强调了其教育意义和对未来研究的建议。
