concentrated on at the time. Inferential statistics will allow the analyzer to create a conclusion which will help categorize probability and actuality through properties of illustrations, such as the mean and typical deviations, known as statistics. The methods in which analyzers use to draw inferential statistical conclusions, allow the analyzer to use samples which help him or her create an overview

language-learning strategies (MCLLS), how the study emerges from the two paradigms is discussed. Discussions show that the aims of the study of gathering descriptive data and exploring relationships between the two variables as well as the use of survey method are more pertained to the positivist paradigm as it shares features with the paradigm including a high degree of control over responses, use of statistics both for descriptive and for determining relationships and researchers being detached by adopting
