Abstract

Reaching beyond the long-discussed attribution of communication strategy use in relation to limited target language competence, the current study was begun in the hope that identification of a more complete set of the factors affecting undesirable selection of communication strategy may lead to pedagogical suggestions for classroom culture that better promotes effective communication strategy use for second language learners. Four major attributions to the selection of communication strategy, are the affective factor, socio-cultural factor, L2 learner’s learning history in the classroom, and their experiences of watching or listening communications of native speakers outside the classroom.
