Shadowing has received attention as a method for teaching pronunciation, but because shadowing is only an auditory presentation, it requires a high level of concentration and is a cognitively difficult and stressful task. The purpose of this study was to determine how the presence or absence of visual presentation of text and different accent types affect accent accuracy in shadowing by intermediate learners of Japanese whose first language is Chinese (N = 46). The results of the shadowing task revealed that the accuracy of pronunciation varied according to the accent type of the target word. Specifically, it was found that the head-high target words demonstrated a superior level of pronunciation accuracy compared to the other accent types following the shadowing task.
