Abstract EN
This study investigated the effectiveness of a training program, based on the modification of negative self-statement, to reduce foreign language anxiety (FLA) among EFL students at university in Jordan.
To achieve this goal, the foreign language classroom anxiety scale was used.
Participants were 30 male and female students from Ajloun National University, who scored high in FLA, and randomly dispensed to one of the two groups: experimental and control.
The experimental group received a pilot programme to modify the negative self-statement and the control group did not.
Results showed that the modification of negative self-statement program (MNSP) was effective in reducing FLA.
A statistically significant difference (.05) was found between the two groups in the effectiveness of the self-statement programme.
