The study employed a quasi-experimental pre-test and posttest against control group design which was carried out at Fasiledes number 2 high schools.

Data were collected using a self-efficacy questionnaire and argumentative writing test. The reliability and validity of the data collection instruments were checked in a variety of ways. Students in the treatment and control groups completed eight argumentative writing lessons using the process genre approach and the conventional approach, respectively. Pre- and post-intervention data were obtained from them through writing tests and questionnaires. The data were analyzed through covariate-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM) using SPSS AMOS v.20. Pretest data were covariate and controlled.The statistical model showed that process genre instruction has a significant positive direct effect (B= 5.078, p< .05) on argumentative writing ability; and a positive direct effect (B =.899, p
