本研究探讨了显性和隐性指令对高级英语学习者在道歉言语行为方面的语用知识发展的影响。共有 10 名英语母语人士和 40 名高级 EFL 学生参与了这项研究。伊拉克库尔德英语学习者是从伊拉克埃尔比勒英国国际学校12年级选拔出来的，他们的水平通过牛津快速分班考试（OQPT）能力测试来确定。这 40 名参与者被随机分为两组；显性组（EG）和隐性组（IG）随后，他们被提供了多项选择话语完成测试（MDCT）作为预测试，该测试由10种不同的道歉情境组成，并基于参与者的现实生活情况，每种情境包括3个选项，只能选择一个被认为是最适合他们的答案。目的是显示 EG 和 IG 之间是否存在显着差异。以英语为母语的人被给予相同的（MDCT）并被要求选择最合适的答案。治疗后，（EG）和（IG）接受相同的MDCT作为后测试。结果显示，EG和IG的结果显着，并且在治疗后显示出改善，并且EG在后测和延迟测试中优于IG。
The current study explored the effects of explicit and implicit instructions on the development of advanced EFL learners’ pragmatic knowledge in terms of apology speech act. A total of 10 English native speakers and 40 advanced EFL students participated in this study. The Iraqi Kurdish EFL learners were selected from grade 12 in British International School in Erbil/ Iraq and their level was determined by Oxford Quick Placement Test (OQPT) proficiency test. These 40 participants were divided randomly into two; explicit group (EG) and implicit group (IG) Later, they were provided a Multiple-choice Discourse Completion Test (MDCT) as a pre-test, which consisted of 10 different situations of apology and were based on the participants’ real-life situation, each situation included 3 options and only one answer could be selected which considered to be the most appropriate answer to them. The aim was to show if there were any significant differences between EG and IG. The English native speakers were given the same (MDCT) and were asked to choose the most appropriate answers. After the treatment, (EG) and (IG) were provided the same MDCT as a post-test. The findings revealed that the results of EG and IG were significant and they showed improvements after the treatment, and the EG outperformed the IG in post-test and delayed-test.
