Abstract
The present study reports on the moderating effects of English proficiency and writing topics on the model of EFL writing. A total of 68 university students participated in the present study, and data were analyzed using a series of multiple regression. Results of the study indicate that for the lower English proficiency group, English grammar, vocabulary, and writing anxiety made a significant prediction on English writing about every-day life, while English grammar, vocabulary, writing anxiety, and perceptions of feedback significantly affected English writing about climatic change. However, for the higher proficiency group, English grammar, vocabulary, knowledge about textual organization and logical flow, and writing anxiety explained a significant proportion in the variances in English writing about every-day life, whereas English writing about climatic change was significantly accounted for by English grammar, vocabulary, reading-writing connection strategy, knowledge about textual organization & logical flow, and writing anxiety. The results were discussed in terms of previous literature, and pedagogical implications were given.
