Abstract

This study attempts to investigate thanking strategies used by Indonesian EFL learners based on contextual factors i.e. social status and social distance. The participants were 50 semester three students studying English for Business at a state polytechnic in Bandung. The participants were both male and female, aging from 19-20 years old. Data were collected via a Discourse Completion Task (DCT) adopted from Cheng (2005) and analyzed using thanking strategy taxonomy proposed by the same author. The DCT consisted of ten different scenarios describing the most common situations that students may encounter in their college life. The results of this study indicated that the most preferred thanking strategies used by Indonesian EFL learners were thanking, alerters (i.e., title) and positive feelings.  In terms of social status and social distance, the findings revealed that thanking and apology strategies were the most used strategies in equal-status with low-familiarity situations.  In situations within which learners shared equal-status with high-familiarity, the most strategies employed were thanking and positive feelings. Regarding thanking strategies used in low-status with low-familiarity situations, thanking and repayment strategies seemed to be the most preferred ones.  Keywords: thanking, strategies, social status, social distance

Abstract

This paper is concerned with integral citation employed by English students of Politeknik Negeri Bandung in their Final Project Reports (FPR). Thus, the aims of this study were to investigate the most integral citation type used by the students in their FPR. In conducting the study, 18 FPR focusing on analysis produced in 2022 were collected as data source. Applying qualitative method and text analysis, the results reveal several things. First, the students favor integral citation than non-integral citation. Second, verb controlling appears more than naming. In verb controlling citation, lexical verb state is commonly used compared with other lexical verbs. Whereas in naming, the phrase according to + the cited authors is the mostly used. this study has implication in improving the students’ academic skills, especially in doing citation.
