The paper is a demodulator quoted from an M.A. thesis entitled A Psycholinguistic Study of Iraqi EFL University Students' Self-Identity. It tries to find out whether or not EFL learning affects Iraqi EFL university students' motivation and their attitude towards EFL. First, the paper presents a brief presents a brief theoretical framework of attitude and motivation including their types and components. Second, to select the required data, a questionnaire has been exposed to 200 respondents to indicate the changes in their attitudes, feelings, behaviors as a consequence of studying EFL. A number of respondents have also been interviewed to find out their opinion about the phenomenon under study.
