dc.description.abstractDespite the fact that foreign language anxiety (FLA) has attracted much interest over the last thirty years and that FLA has also been recognized and documented as one of the factors affecting learner performance, this aspect of EFL has been disregarded in Serbia, and there are no studies that we are aware of concerning this phenomenon. This paper is aimed at presenting findings on FLA of 101 first-year students of the Technical Faculty in Bor, Serbia, and contributing to the existing literature on FLA, as well as at confirming the reliability of Foreign Language Anxiety Scale (FCLAS) as an instrument to measure potential anxiety in EFL classroom. The theoretical objective of this study was to examine Horwitz et al.’s model of FCLAS as well as to produce an adapted version of FCLAS suitable for Serbian learners’ attitude towards FLA. The adapted version of FCLAS was administered to 101 non-major English students of the Technical Faculty in Bor, and the findings are presented in this paper.
