Japanese university EFL students (N = 187) were asked to complete a 19-item questionnaire measured on a five-point Likert scale. It found that students have anxieties regarding their own abilities and making mistakes in front of others (dubbed as "the intrapersonal factor") as well as how they are being evaluated by their instructors (dubbed as "the interpersonal factor"). The study found that the intrapersonal factor is higher than the interpersonal factors independent of evaluators. It is plausible that the learners' main concern is their internal matters. Furthermore, the intrapersonal factor does not show a significant difference between evaluators, arising regardless of their identity of the evaluator. On the other hand, the interpersonal factor is higher in the case of Japanese evaluators than in the case of native English speaking evaluators. That means when a Japanese English teacher is an evaluator, learners' anxiety of the evaluators' evaluation for their speaking gets higher.}, pages = {25--35}, title = {日本人EFL学習者の外国語スピーキングテストにおける不安分析}, year = {2015} }
