The present study investigates Japanese speakers' comprehension of indirect refusals among equals used in American English (AE). First, a discourse completion test (DCT) was conducted with native speakers (NSs) of AE' to obtain naturally occurring indirect refusal statements. Based on this production data, the multiple-choice questionnaire (Beebe, Takahashi, & Uliss-Weltz, 1990; Bouton, 1988; Chui, 1990; Robinson, 1992) was developed for the present study to examine the comprehension of indirect AE refusals by Japanese speakers. Sixty-one freshmen majoring in Education at the Japanese University and learning English as a foreign language (L2) participated in the study. A one-way ANOVA with repeated measures consisting of four levels of situations (Request, Invitation, Suggestion, and Offer) were employed. The results have shown that there are significant differences among four situations: Offer=Request>Suggestion>Invitation situations.
