Second Request for help in a Sociolinguistics study

[Suzanne Adel Amin]

 Dear Professors

Please be advised that I’m Egyptian conducting a study in the field of Sociolinguistics. I’m studying the gender differences in apology speech acts performed by Americans as native English speakers and those performed by some Arabs as foreign language speakers. I am using a questionnaire for collecting data.. So would you kindly evaluate the questionnaire (sent as an attached file) and advise about using quesitionnaires as a tool for data collection.

Actually I’ m facing a  problem in my research as at I can’t find enough number of  female subjects to fill in the questionnaire for me so  I’ll  be grateful  if you forward the questionnaire  I’m using to any Arab females who might be your students. All subjects should be Arab graduate students who are fluent in English.

Thanks in advance for your co-operation.
