Abstract

This two-phase exploratory mixed methods study aimed at first developing a questionnaire, and then investigating the relation between writing ability and writing strategy use. To this end, Think-Aloud Protocol was used to elicit the themes from five high achievers MA TEFL students’ Writing Strategies. Then, the developed 52-item questionnaire was administered to a sample of 100 Iranian EFL learners to pilot its validity. Next, having gained confidence in its reliability (α =0. 85) and construct validity, the questionnaire was distributed among a sample of 60 MA students from the same target population, both male and female, ranging in age from 25 to 30 years old. The results suggested a positive correlation between students' scores in their advanced writing course and their strategies used (r = 0. 49). The results revealed that students with a better understanding of metacognitive strategies could obtain better results. Thus, the findings account for the fact that being a cognitive process itself, writing skill can be boosted provided that the strategies of the same nature are reinforced and practiced.
