Abstract:
Vocabulary is one of the essential components of language and learning phrasal verbs as part of vocabulary is quite challenging for foreign language learners. The present study aimed at investigating the effects of visual and auditory input enhancement on learning non-congruent phrasal verbs. The participants of the study were 90 intermediate English language learners who were divided into two experimental and one control groups. The first experimental group received visual input enhancement and the second experimental group auditory input enhancement, and the control group no enhanced material. All three groups were tested on their knowledge of non-congruent phrasal verbs before and after the
treatment, using a non-congruent phrasal verb test developed by the researcher.
The results of the data analyses indicated that both visual and auditory input
enhancement were effective in learning non-congruent phrasal verbs by Iranian
EFL learners, and that both groups outperformed the control group in their
achievement.

The present study aimed at investigating the effects of visual and auditory input enhancement on learning non-congruent phrasal verbs.
The results of the data analyses indicated that both visual and auditory input enhancement were effective in learning non-congruent phrasal verbs by Iranian EFL learners, and that both groups outperformed the control group in their achievement.
None of these studies has, however, dealt with the comparative effect of visual vs auditory input enhancement on the learning of non-congruent phrasal verbs.
In order to achieve this aim, the following research question was raised by the researchers: Is there any significant difference between the effects of visual vs auditory input enhancement on learning non-congruent phrasal verbs by Iranian EFL learners?
Results The purpose of the study was to explore the effects of auditory and visual input enhancement on the learning of non-congruent phrasal verbs by Iranian EFL learners.
241, and accordingly, ANOVA was run on the scores of the three groups to explore the effects of visual and auditory input enhancement on learning non-congruent phrasal verbs.
Discussion The present study aimed at exploring the effect of visual and auditory input enhancement on learning non-congruent phrasal verbs by Iranian EFL learners.
The Role of Input-based and Output-based Language Teaching in Learning English Phrasal Verbs by Upper-intermediate Iranian EFL Learners."
