الملخص

The present study investigated the impact of two factors influencing students’ use of strategies, namely ‘study year’ and ‘gender’. In addition, it aimed at finding out the extent to which the learners employ strategies. Besides, it sought to unveil the most frequently used type of strategy. Our sample comprises 75 learners of English belonging to Badji Mokhtar University- Annaba. This sample includes students from different study years and gender. The data collection tool employed was a questionnaire containing Oxford’s Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (1990). The findings revealed that the strategies are used to a medium degree; in which the most prevalent type is metacognitive. Furthermore, there was no significant effect of study year on strategy use; however, there was a partial impact of gender since the latter was significant only on memory and affective strategies.
