Abstract
The paper aims to evaluate the effects of the Journal Club to scientific research activities of lecturers at School of Foreign Languages - Thai Nguyen University in two aspects: stages of concern and levels of use. Data were collected via questionnaires and interviews in the Concern-based Adoption Model (CBAM) with participants. Results revealed that the Journal Club drew concerns of the participants at different levels and its contents have been applied into the actual research practice of the teachers. However, at the time of data collection, the club is not the prority and the only concern of the participants.
