  • - By Paul Beaufait
  • Test performance data in this study suggest that nonnative
    varieties of English can be used as listening test input while attitude
    questionnaire results go counter.
  • These findings support most of the previous research in
    this area.
  • Until research shows that the use of nonnative English as input
    is irrelevant to the construct of listening, we may be unable to use
    such input in testing, especially in high-stakes tests such as TOEFL and
    IELTS.
  • As nonnative speech gains recognition among language users
    and test takers, we hope the attitudes and perceptions toward the use of
    these varieties of English will change.
