STUDY Two In the case of extramural speaking anxiety, the results of the regression analysis revealed that altogether four EE activities explain 13% of the L2 speaking anxiety experienced by learners outside the EFL classroom. All four activities proved to be a significant predictor of anxiety at the p<.05 level of significance (see Table 36). Similar to classroom anxiety, in terms of extramural anxiety, chatting and watching videos on YouTube as well as reading paper-based content were found to have a negative impact on anxiety, meaning that the more someone engages in these activities, the less anxious they are in an extramural environment when they have to speak English. In the case of TikTok, similar to in-school anxiety, a positive correlation was identified, which means that the more TikTok content someone consumes, the more anxious they are when they have to speak English outside of school. Here, too, an explanation for this could be the fact that TikTok is more of a lonely activity and that those who do not create content on TikTok but only consume it are more likely to be more introverted individuals (Bhandari-Bimo 2020). 5.5.8.6 In-school and extramural willingness to communicate It was also investigated whether EE activities have an impact on in-class WTC through regression analysis. The results of the analysis show that altogether four EE activities explain 20% of in-class WTC. These activities proved to be a significant predictor of in-class WTC at the p<.05 level of significance (see Table 37). Table 37.
