摘要
The present study attempted to investigate the effect of reduction recasts on the improvement of the speaking ability of Iranian intermediate level EFL learners. After administering a language proficiency test, 44 homogeneous students were randomly assigned to the experimental and comparison groups. During 10 sessions of instruction, the experimental group received reduction recasts and the comparison group received non-reduction recasts. After the treatment, both groups took part in the speaking posttest. The result of the study indicated that there was a statistically significant difference between the groups. Therefore, it was concluded that recast could improve the students' speaking ability.
