Abstract
Objectives: This article has had two main objectives. The first has been to adapt and validate a questionnaire to measure intrinsic satisfaction when learning through a second language (English). To do so, the items satisfaction/enjoyment and boredom were adapted into this new setting. The second goal has been to analyze, in a CLIL context, the sex and age differences within these two variables (satisfaction/enjoyment and boredom).
 Methods: In order to fulfill this study, 3355 students were surveyed in the region of Andalucía (South of Spain) with a statistical confidence level of 99%, and a margin of error below 2%. After the analysis performed, the instrument proved to be valid and reliable, which implies that a new tool would be available for future studies, and even for actual teaching in new approaches of the FLL, such as gamification.
 Discussion: Regarding sex and age differences, the main finding has been the significant higher boredom values in boys, as opposed to enjoyment in girls in CLIL contexts.
 Conclusion: This might shed light on performance depending sex and age which could be useful in other studies, and CLIL practice adaptation.
