摘要
This study investigated the relationship between language learning and critical thinking of EFL learners. To achieve the purpose of the study, 68 female EFL learners were selected according to two different levels of study, beginner and intermediate to advanced groups in an institute in Kermanshah, a city in the west of Iran. They were requested to complete the "Watson-Glaser's Critical Thinking Appraisal". The data supported the theoretical expectation of a linkage between language learning and critical thinking of learners.
