This paper questions whether the notion of learner beliefs as conceived in the SLA litera- ture is adequate to capture the complexity of learners' thinking about language learning. It proposes as an alternative, an analytical framework based on three levels: conception, approach and belief. The notion of conceptions of language and language learning is pro- posed as higher level category conditioning speci®c beliefs. The notion of approaches to learning is proposed as a category describing the level at which beliefs are made manifest in speci®c contexts of learning. These categories are illustrated with reference to the authors' data drawn from interviews with university students in Hong Kong
