description: The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of task complexity on  students’ spoken performance in terms of complexity, accuracy and fluency  (CAF) and the relationship between students’ perception of the task complexity  and students’ spoken/oral performance in terms of CAF. The subjects were the  eighth grade students of SMPN 21 Bandar Lampung consisting of 30 students.  The tasks in the form of dialogue were used to elicit the data. The result of the  research showed that, The simple task complexity with manipulating task  complexity along with two dimensions resource-directing (+few elements, +here  and now, +no reasoning demands) and resource-depleting (+planning time,  +single task, +prior knowledge) can be used to increase the students’ complexity  (syntactic and lexical complexity) and fluency on students’ spoken performance.  On the other hands, the complex task complexity with manipulating task  complexity along two dimensions resource-directing (-few elements, -here and  now, -reasoning demands) and resource-depleting (-planning time, -single task, -  prior knowledge) can be used to increase the students’ accuracy and complexity  but decreased the fluency on students’ spoken performance. Besides that, the  students had problems in performing the task not only because of the level of task  complexity (cognitive factors), but also because of the other factors such as task  difficulty (learner factors e.g., confidence, motivation). This research suggested  teachers to design a task with simple and complex of task complexity to improve  students’ achievement in terms of complexity, accuracy, and fluency. Besides, it  is expected that this study can inspire other researchers to have further research  about task complexity.  Key words: TBLT, task complexity, resource-directing and resource-depleting,  CAF, students’ perception.
