Abstract

This study mainly aimed to examine the relationship between TEFL learners’
intrapersonal intelligence and learners’ autonomy. To fulfill the objectives of this study, 80

selected based on random sampling and given two types of questionnaires: A questionnaire of
emotional intelligence by Bar-on (1997) as well as a questionnaire of learners’ autonomy
developed by Asadinik and Mirza Suzani (2015). Based on the results analysis, there found to be
a significant positive relationship between intrapersonal intelligence and learners’ autonomy in
