یک مطالعه عمل گرایانه اجتماعی از الگوهای تحقق عمل بیان عذرخواهی در زبان فارسی

The other issue explored in this study was the investigation of the effect of the values assigned to the two context-external variables of social distance and social dominance on the frequency of the apology intensifiers. To this end, Persian apologetic utterances were collected via a Discourse Completion Test (DCT). The research findings indicated that Persian apologies are as formulaic in pragmatic structures. Also, the values assigned to the two context-external variables were found to have significant effect on the frequency of the intensifiers in different situations.
