| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study mainly investigated the linguistic characteristics and psychological states of Japanese students when they were speaking English. The results of the corpus-based analysis showed that Japanese university students did not completely utilize time-gaining discourse markers and that their speech exhibited longer and more frequent silent pauses than did overseas students’ speech. Moreover, the qualitative study revealed that the participants, who were university students with relatively high overall English proficiency, had some degree of anxiety regarding impromptu speaking.
