摘要：This study aims primarily to investigate the impact of learning multiple foreign languages on the
use of metacognitive reading strategies (MRSs) by foreign language teaching (FLT) department
students. A number of factors such as gender, hand preference, class, and programme with reference
to their belief orientation were also involved in the study. A five-scale Likert type questionnaire,
consisting of 22 MRSs and 12 belief orientation items, was administered to 205 participants in the
department of FLT at ?anakkale Onsekiz Mart University in Turkey. Post Hoc test indicated
significant differences among the participants in different programs, evidencing the contribution of
learning a second foreign language to the use of MRSs. Participants of the Japanese Language
Teaching Programme implied that learners!ˉ preference of MRSs would develop hand in hand with
their difficulty with the target language.
