Abstract
The purpose of this study is to identify the relationship between the cultural capital of a student and his internal academic motivation in The Republic of Tatarstan and Uzbekistan.
The following aspects were taken into account as children's cultural capital: access to books, attendance at cultural events, support for creative development, and features of family upbringing. To assess motivation for learning, the methodology for diagnosing the structure of motivation for learning in schoolchildren by M.V. Matyukhina was used. The study involved 354 primary school students from the Republic of Tatarstan (Russia) and Uzbekistan (the cities of Jizzakh and Urgench). A positive correlation was found between cultural capital and children's learning motivation. At the same time, the strength of the correlation was higher among schoolchildren from Uzbekistan. A relationship was established between individual family practices, cultural traditions, and various types of learning motivation. The results of the study are relevant for the development of effective educational programs and methods of education that take into account the cultural context of the family and contribute to the development of children's learning motivation.
