The research setting was a compulsory English Literature course in an English Language Teaching (ELT) department, in which a writing module adopting a Genre-Based Approach was integrated with the aim of teaching the literary analysis essay as a genre. The participants of the study were 78 2 </span> <sup style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">nd </sup> <span style="font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:11.2px;"> year undergraduate students of ELT who were taking the course. The study employed an Embedded Mixed Methods Design and Writing Anxiety was measured by means of the Second Language Writing Anxiety Inventory. The scale was adapted to the research context using the data obtained from 153 participants from the same context, who would not participate in the intervention study. 3 measurements before (Week 1), during (Week 7) and after (Week 12) the intervention were taken from the participants for comparisons. The perceptions of the participants were also sought for by means of interview sessions. Since the quantitative data was found to have been both normally distributed and spherical, a One-Way Repeated Measures of ANOVA was administered to reveal if there was any change in the Writing Anxiety levels of the participants. Pairwise comparisons were made by means of the Bonferroni Post Hoc criterion. The findings showed that the Genre-Based writing module may have had an effect on the Writing Anxiety levels of the participants as the analyses revealed a declining trend with significant differences among all measurements, indicating small to medium effects. </span> <br /> </p> <p> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="608" colspan="2" style="width:456.3pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Information about Author(s)* </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="608" colspan="2" style="width:456.3pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Author 1 </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Author (Last name, First name) </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Uzun, Kutay </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Affiliated institution (University) </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Trakya University </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Country </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Turkey </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;pa}, number={4}, publisher={Hacettepe University} }
