Özet
Öz The present study investigated communication strategies employed by Turkish EFL learners and aimed at revealing the relationship between language proficiency and the use of communication strategies. An interaction-based methodology was used in which 17 pairs at different proficiency levels were asked to negotiate on two short movies and stimulated-recall interviews were implemented. The results of Kruskal-Wallis test illustrated that participants use particular strategies such as ‘use of fillers’, ‘self-repair’, and ‘self-repetition’. Proficiency level was not found as a factor influencing learners’ strategy choice but significant differences were found in three strategies: ‘message reduction’, ‘topic avoidance’, and ‘mime’. These findings allow for generating implications for issues to consider in designing classes.
