Attitude is defined as a learned tendency to evaluate things in a certain way. This can include evaluations of people, issues, objects or events. Such evaluations are often positive or negative, but they can also be uncertain at times. Attitude is an integral part of learning and that it should, therefore become a significant component of second and foreign language learning pedagogy. Man's variables including affective, holistically construct his entity so that any educational endeavor should take these variables into great consideration. This research as an attitudinal perspective has brought about lucrative results. Following this, Akbari has in this volume tried to explore the type of attitude (high/ low) EFL learners hold towards the English language status and its effects on the learners' reading achievement. Conducted in an Iranian EFL context, the findings sustain the validity of the present perspective.
