چکیده:

The present study was conducted to investigate the relationship between Iranian EFL teachers’ perfectionism and Willingness to Communicate (WTC) and learners’ perfectionism and WTC. To achieve this aim, 10 Iranian EFL teachers and 100 Iranian EFL learners whose level of proficiency was upper intermediate participated in the study. The learners’ general English knowledge was evaluated via Oxford Quick Placement Test (OQPT). The instruments used by the researcher for the purpose of data collection were WTC Questionnaire and Perfectionism Questionnaire. The former was a seven-point Likert scale one and the latter was a five-point Likert scale one. As the first step, the OPT was given to the language learners to understand which ones were upper-intermediate learners to become the participants of the study. For selecting the teachers, the researcher asked more than 30 English teachers in Isfahan who had three or more years of teaching experience and 10 of them accepted to take part in the study. Then, the questionnaires were given to the both groups of the participants to evaluate the relationships between their perfectionism and their WTC. The results were gathered for statistical analysis. The findings of the study there was a negative and significant relationship between the teachers’ WTC and perfectionism (r = -.85) and a negative and significant relationship between the learners’ WTC and perfectionism (r = -.37). The current study provides useful implications for learners, teachers, and curriculum developers in the field of TEFL.
