شماره ركورد

Abstract
This study aims at investigating willingness to communicate (WTC) construct, which is developed to determine language learners’ willingness to communicate, reviewing the relevant literature and suggesting further directions for future research. WTC has become a recent addition to language learning research since the last four decades. Several studies, which investigate the relationships between WTC and other variables of language learning process, have been conducted for a long time. Yet, current research, limited to the same research perspectives and designs, hampers the diachronic development of the conceptualization of WTC. This paper is devoted to the study of WTC in the relevant literature as well as suggestions for further studies.
