The participants were composed of 30 EFL students selected from a cohort of 52 intermediate students in an English language institute in Sanandaj City, Iran. They were selected based on their scores on the Preliminary English Test (PET) and a collocation test, developed and piloted in advance. The selected participants were randomly divided into two experimental groups. Collocations were taught through literary content in one group; the others were instructed via non-literary content. At the end of the period of treatment with both groups, a collocation test was administered to both groups as a posttest. The analysis of collected data, using One-way ANCOVA and Descriptive Statistics, reveals that teaching the new collocations through literary contents proved significantly more effective than teaching them through non-literary contents. 2019 artículo científico 0120-5927 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=499462432004 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499462432004/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499462432004/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499462432004/499462432004.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4994/499462432004/movil 10.19183/how.26.1.473 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4994 HOW application/pdf Asociación Colombiana de Profesores de Inglés HOW (Colombia) Num.1 Vol.26
