This study utilized Foreign Language Reading Anxiety Scale (FLRAS) and Attitude and Motivation Test Battery (AMTB) for collecting data. The results showed that FL reading anxiety and FL learning motivation do exist among EFL master program students; also, there are significant differences of FL reading anxiety and FL learning motivation with its sub-dimensions of pure motivation, attitude toward learning English, and motivation intensity included between different gender. It’s found that there are significant differences of FL learning motivation along with desire to learn foreign language between different types of universities as well. The results also showed significant relationships of FL reading anxiety and FL learning motivation with pure motivation, attitude toward learning foreign language, desire to learn foreign language, and motivational intensity included among participants speaking different native language.
