چکیده

هدف این مطالعه بررسی اثر افزایش آگاهی از متون با دو درجه پیچیدگی (زبانی و شناختی پیچیده در مقابل زبانی پیچیده و شناختی ساده) بر درک مطلب دانشجوان ایرانی زبان انگلیسی بود. به دلیل وجود متغیرهای مستقل چندگانه (روش آموزش و پیچیدگی متن)، یک طرح آزمایشی شبه‌تجربی با استفاده از پیش‌آزمون- درمانی- پس‌آزمون استفاده شد. در این رابطه، 120 دانشجو در چهار کلاس یکسان نمونه مطالعه را تشکیل دادند. آن‌ها به طور تصادفی به دو گروه آزمایشی و دو گروه کنترل تقسیم شدند. در یک گروه آزمایشی، آگاهی از متون زبانی و شناختی پیچیده افزایش یافت و در دیگری آگاهی از متون زبانی پیچیده و شناختی ساده افزایش یافت و اعمال شد. در گروه‌های کنترل، همان متون بدون افزایش آگاهی از متون استفاده شد. یافته‌های تحلیل واریانس چندمتغیره دو‌طرفه نشان داد افزایش آگاهی متن تأثیر اصلی معناداری بر روی هر دو نوع متن داشت. نتایج همچنین اثر تعاملی معنادار از روش آموزش و پیچیدگی متن را نشان داد. این بدان معناست که تأثیر افزایش آگاهی از متن زمانی‌که متن زبانی و شناختی پیچیده بود، بیشتر بود و زمانی‌که متن زبانی پیچیده و شناختی ساده بود، کمتر بود. یافته‌ها می‌تواند برای معلمان، دانشجوان، طراحان متون درسی و نویسندگان کتاب‌های درسی مفید باشد.
