Abstract

The present study investigates the relationship between risk-taking and self-assessment of EFLlearners in writing ability. To this end, 31 Iranian senior students completed a risk-taking questionnairebased upon the Venturesomeness subscale of Eysenck s IVE modified by Kiany and Pournia (2006), torate their risk-taking levels. Based on their answers, the students were divided into two groups: high risk- takers and low risk-takers. They were then given a topic about which to write an essay and also to assesstheir writing skills. Two intra-raters were chosen to rate the students' writings based on just the correctstructure of essay writing, not grammar or word correction or other details since the aim of study was toinvestigate students' risk-taking in their academic life in comparison to their social life. To analyse theobtained data, Pearson Correlation Coefficient and Multi-variance Analysis of Variance (MANOVA)were used as statistical procedures. The results did not show any significant relationship between risk- taking and students' self-assessment in writing. In other words, the high risk-takers and low risk-takerswere the same in assessing their writings. Also high risk-takers did not show any risks in their writings,such as using complicated sentences, new structures, and so forth. The implications of the study arefurther discussed.

Özet

Bu çalışma yabancı dil olarak EFL ingilizce öğrencilerin yazma becerilerinde risk alma ve kendinideğerlendirme arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektedir. Sonunda 31 lise öğrencisi Kiany ve Pournia (2006) geliştirmiş olduğu Eysenckin girişkenlik ölçeğine göre hazırlanmış risk alma anketini doldururlar. Yanıtlara göre öğrenciler, yüksek risk alıcılar ve az risk alıcılar olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Onlara bir dene- me yazmaları ve de kendi yazım becerilerini değerlendirmek için bir konu başlığı verildi. Öğrencilerinyazılarını sadece doğru cümle kurulumunu değerlendiren iki ölçücü seçildi. Bu çalışmanın amacı öğrencilerin akademik hayatıyla sosyal yaşamda risk olmalarını incelediği için, öğrencilerin dilbilgisi, kelimebilgisi ya da diğer dil becerileri değerlendirilmemiştir. Elde edilen verileri değerlendirmek için, istatistikişlemleri olarak Pearson Correlation Coefficient ve Varianceın çoklu analizi MANOVA kullanılmıştır.Sonuçlar risk alma ve kendini değerlendirme arasında önemli bir ilişki olmadığını gösterdi. Diğer bir deyişle, yüksek risk alıcılar ve az risk alıcılar kendi yazılarını değerlendirmede benzerdi. Çok risk alıcılaryazılarında birleşik cümle, yeni yapı ve diğerlerinin kullanımı gibi alanlarda herhangi risk göstermemiştir.Araştırmanın sonuçları metinde detaylı tartışılmaktadır.
