The present research sets out to examine the impact of reflective reciprocal teaching (RRT) as a mode of instruction on the academic self-concept of Iranian English as a foreign language (EFL) learners. To this end, three classes comprising ۱۰۰ EFL learners majoring in English teaching were selected according to convenience sampling and designated as the reciprocal teaching (RT) group, the reflective reciprocal teaching (RRT) group, and the control group. A mixed-method approach and a quasi-experimental design with a pretest, treatment, and posttest paradigm were utilized in this work. In its quantitative phase, the data were gathered via the academic self-concept inventory. The descriptive statistics and ANOVA results indicated the significant impact of the RRT on the learners’ academic self-concept. Also, qualitative investigation of the learners' perceptions via semi-structured interviews and content analysis revealed their positive perceptions regarding this mode of instruction. Taken together, it appears that the significant other's (teacher and peers) role and teaching instruction have the main contribution to the learners' self-beliefs. The results of the intervention program, in turn, generate a new outlook on all teaching, learning, and assessment processes. They also provide suitable grounds for improving psychoeducational constructs besides learners' cognitive and regulatory skills.
