Sampel populasi mencakupi 275 orang pelajar daripada beberapa buah sekolah di daerah Al-Mafraq. Bagi menjawab persoalan penyelidikan, kaedah pengumpulan data bercampur diaplikasi dalam dua fasa. Dalam fasa pertama, daripada 275 set soal selidik yang diedarkan dalam kalangan pelajar EFL Jordan, 268 set soal selidik diterima dan boleh digunakan. Dalam fasa kedua pula, sepuluh temu bual separa struktur dijalankan bagi mengesahkan keputusan kuantitatif. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis ANOVA satu hala, analisis kekerapan dan CB-SEM (Co-Variance Based Structural Equation Modeling) dalam perisian AMOS 21.0.
