Abstract
The results showed that the undergraduates, who were also the younger students who had been studying in the United States for fewer years and performed lower academically, felt less strongly about their perceptions of the linguistic-cultural influences. Whereas, the graduate students, who were older and had been studying in the United States for more years and were performing well at their academic level, felt more strongly about their perceptions of the linguistic-cultural influences that might hinder their English language proficiency.
