This study considered an important phenomenon which was problems in writing a scientific research article is more of a disciplinary issue than a linguistic one. The design of this study is a survey study. The tool is quantitative which was done by a questionnaire. Survey research is the collection of data attained by asking individuals questions. 122 faculty members took part in this nation-wide study. The faculty members were professors of State and Islamic Azad universities, the two most influential of all Iranian universities. Participants were selected purposefully from different disciplines working the leading universities in Iran (Tehran University, Medical Science University of Iran, Sharif University, Shahid Beheshti University, Amir Kabir University, Tarbiat Modarres University, Sanati Esfahan University, Science and Technology University of Iran, Ferdowsi Mashhad University, Shahid Beheshti Medical Science University, Shiraz University, and Art University of Tehran). The questionnaire was given to the participants through E-mail. This study was situating these difficulties as a linguistic variable. This point to the likelihood that there could be differences among scientists in relation to their perception of burden. These differences may result from exposure to English, seniority, linguistic, and ethnic community. In other words, there is a need for further research to explore exactly these differences among the communities of second-language scientists. Based on statistics and correlation coefficients, the researcher found that there’s a significant relationship among second language and anxiety, difficulty, and (dis)satisfaction for writing scientific articles in English language as a second language.
