Sažetak

This thesis delves into the significance of linguistic factors when studying the so-called foreign language effect (FLE), which refers to an increase of utilitarian decision-making in the foreign language compared to the native language. It is widely believed that the foreign language effect is primarily influenced by four linguistic factors: age of acquisition, proficiency, learning context, and immersion. The theoretical framework in the first part of the thesis provides a comprehensive review of previous research conducted on the age of acquisition, proficiency, the context of learning, and immersion, which helps in providing a better understanding of the foreign language effect. The second part of the thesis presents a study carried out on a sample of 107 university students. The research involved the use of 25 moral dilemmas to assess the impact of linguistic factors on the foreign language effect. The results show that immersion was the crucial linguistic factor, followed by the age of acquisition, proficiency, and the informal context of learning.
