Abstract：Abstract: Sociocultural Theory (SCT) has recently drawn the attention from quite a few scholars in the SLA field in China; however, current research needs improving in depth, width and quantity, and misinterpretations of SCT’s basic concepts, disciplinary nature, subject matter and methodologies do exist. To address the problems and clarify the relevant issues, in this article, we start from a brief description of SCT’s philosophical foundations, which lends itself to the illustration of its concepts and the disciplinary attribute. Then by reviewing the previous works both international and national, we look at the present status quo of the SCT research in SLA with a special focus on the research paradigm and methodologies. We hope this study would provide an alternative reference to those who want to further their research in the field. Key words: Sociocultural Theory; Vygotsky; philosophical foundation; disciplinary attribute; research paradigm; research methodology
