The sample of the study consisted of 64 volunteer students; 35 Jordanian students majoring in English Language, and 29 Saudi students majoring in Tourism Guidance. The researcher used a DCT to collect the data necessary for the study. Mean scores and t-test were used to analyze the data and answer the questions of the study.
