A rating to each subject in this study. For statistical assessment,subjects within the same main category, regardless of their subcategories, was considered as on the same proficiency level. For instance, subject A with the rating of Intermediate-low and subject B with the rating of Intermediate-high would both be
categorized as Intermediate.
Data Collection
Each Oral Proficiency Interview was recorded on audio tape.The researcher then reviewed each audio tape and identified all conceivable erroneous sentences produced by each subject and tabulated them on a data sheet. Some of the recorded sentences have been modified by partial repair to display the error nder
discussion more clearly. In order to provide the necessarycontext as ackground, erroneous sentences are sometimespresented in a dialogue format, and in some cases each sentence might contain more than one error. The personal sheet contains
pertinent information about each subject's previous language learning experience and family background.
