The fascination with crime, as evident from its extensive coverage in novels and on television, remains a topic of interest for the general public. This fascination often elicits responses rooted in deeply held values and can significantly impact individuals. Consequently, people’s attitudes toward interrogations, trials, and punishments may be strongly influenced by the discourse surrounding crime as portrayed in fictional texts. The primary objective of this article is to contribute to the body of research that has delved into the influential role of ideology in shaping narratives centred on crime stories. Specifically, through a linguistic analysis of transitivity and appraisal patterns in the first episode of the TV series When They See Us, this study addresses two fundamental research questions: 1) What does a transitivity analysis of process and participant types reveal about the construction of ‘a criminal character’ and how may this contribute to a presupposition of guilt? 2) What can an Appraisal analysis tell us about the evaluative portrayal of ‘a criminal character’ and how may this contribute to a presupposition of guilt? The aim is to provide insights into how the discursive representation of specific social groups, exemplified here by black Hispanic teenagers, simultaneously reflects and influences public perceptions, particularly when the discourse emanates from authoritative figures.

Vaccine hesitancy remains one of the greatest challenges for global health. Previous research has shown that the recruitment of rational processes is increased in hypothetical decision-making scenarios when the underpinning information is presented in a foreign language. We investigate whether vaccine campaigns could benefit from this Foreign Language Effect (FLE) in order to overcome vaccine hesitancy. We conceptually replicated a recent study on COVID-19 vaccine campaigns (Freeman et al. 2021) to assess whether information can more successfully reduce vaccine hesitancy when presented in a foreign language as well as how other factors, such as language proficiency, impact the FLE. Based on a survey of 436 participants, we conclude that there may be the potential to lower vaccine hesitancy among individuals with English as a foreign language by presenting information in English, rather than in their native language. Conversely, participants who are native speakers of English and negatively predisposed against the COVID-19 vaccine react more negatively to information they read in a foreign language compared to their native language.

This study explores the use by examinees of claims of epistemic primacy, in the form of noun-copula clause constructions, as devices through which to perform the social action of disagreeing during group-based, task-oriented second language oral assessment tasks. Using a conversation analytic approach to examine sequences in which these disagreeing turns occur, we report on this turn format’s ability to secure an affiliative response from fellow examinees and thereby maintain a collaborative flow. In doing so, we uncover one way of disagreeing which is particularly germane to the collaborative demands of these assessment tasks. The relevance of these findings for the development of learner and assessor training and assessment materials are considered.

Research funded by the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) exerts considerable influence over the trajectory of biomedical science and healthcare policy and practice. Here, we extend previous research by assessing the relationship between the expression of epistemic stance (i.e. confidence in propositions) in successful NIH funding applications and the subsequent research publications. Analysis of 140 stance features (modal verbs, hedges, and boosters) in all PubMed abstracts describing NIH-funded research during the period 1985–2020 identified trends that broadly mirrored those previously reported for abstracts of the associated funding applications. We argue that trends, in part, indicate that investigators adopted a stance that became less cautious and less tentative (e.g. consistent declines for appear, seem, and probably), and increasingly confident, assertive, and empirical (e.g. consistent increases for highlight, likely, and typically). Discussing our results in relation to changes in the biomedical research system, including growth in promotional writing strategies, we suggest that increasing salesmanship in the NIH research system is in part a downstream effect of funding mechanisms. We also infer methodological and pedagogic implications for analysis of metadiscourse.

In the face of transnational mobility and migration, globally networked communities and super-diverse social environments, traditional research practices of speaker categorization such as the distinction between native and non-native speakers, first, second, and third language users and mono-, bi-, and pluri-/multilinguals, which rest on the assumption of categorical differences between types of speakers and the general stability of speaker categories as biographical fact, are increasingly called into question. Critical voices point out that in real life, differences between language users turn out to be fuzzy, gradient, and continuous, and that conventional speaker categorizations are conceptualized from a monolingual perspective, providing grounds for discriminatory practices. Based on a longitudinal study design, the paper aims to offer an alternative quantitative approach for researchers who are dissatisfied with common practices of speaker categorization and wish to shift perspective to a more comprehensive way of studying language development within communities. The analysis draws on the results of c-tests for German, Italian, and English that were specifically designed for the study and administered to the same students (n = 170) in their first and final year at lower secondary school.
面对跨国流动和迁移、全球网络化社区和超级多样化的社会环境，传统的说话者分类研究实践，如母语使用者和非母语使用者、第一语言使用者、第二语言使用者和第三语言使用者以及单语者、双语者和多语者/多语者之间的区别，越来越受到质疑。批评的声音指出，在现实生活中，语言使用者之间的差异是模糊的、渐变的和连续的，传统的说话者分类是从单语的角度进行概念化的，为歧视性做法提供了依据。本文以纵向研究设计为基础，旨在为那些对说话者分类的常见做法不满、希望转换视角以更全面的方式研究社区内语言发展的研究人员提供另一种定量方法。本文分析了德语、意大利语和英语的 c 测试结果，这些测试是专门为本研究设计的，并对初中一年级和毕业班的同一批学生（n = 170）进行了测试。

A large mass of research has reported the significance and power of positive psychology (PP) constructs in second/foreign language (L2) education. As an offshoot of PP, altruistic teaching, which highlights teaching without self-focus, has recently initiated its way into L2 research territory. However, the way altruistic teaching influences L2 students’ academic literacy skills, such as abstract writing, has been left uncharted to date. To bridge this gap, the present study used an experimental design to investigate the contribution of altruistic teaching to 163 university students’ English abstract writing required in research article (RA)s. The results of t-test and ANOVA indicated a statistically significant difference between the learners’ RA abstract writing in the control and experimental groups in both the short and long run in light of altruistic teaching. The study discusses the results and presents the implications of altruistic teaching for L2 research and practice.

Research yields contradictory results on the relationship between an individual’s spirituality, that is, the relationship with God/the Transcendent, and their cultural development. To address this gap, we conceptualize a model that investigates the effects of two spirituality dimensions, namely felt love for God and love for others, on the behavioral aspect of intercultural competence, that is, intercultural effectiveness (IE), through ethnocentrism. This model undergoes testing using a sample of 144 international students who self-identify as Christians, Muslims, belonging to other religions, and non-religious. The results confirm the positive impact of spirituality on IE by reducing ethnocentrism. We establish suppressing effects of both love for God and love for others, suggesting intricate dynamics of these two spirituality dimensions within the intercultural communication model. Furthermore, we identify the direct effects of host language and English as a lingua franca proficiency on IE. We also define the mitigating effect of host language proficiency on the adverse impact of ethnocentrism on IE. This study underscores the importance of higher education institutions to nurture students’ relational spirituality and support them in overcoming ethnocentric perspectives.

One of the most powerful and enduring ideas in written discourse analysis is that genres can be described in terms of the moves which structure a writer’s purpose. Considerable research has sought to identify these distinct communicative acts, but analyses have been beset by problems of subjectivity, reliability, and the time-consuming need for multiple coders to confirm analyses. In this article, we employ the affordances of Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4) to automate the annotation process by using natural language prompts. Focusing on abstracts from articles in four applied linguistics journals, we devise prompts which enable the model to identify moves effectively. The annotated outputs of these prompts were evaluated by two assessors with a third addressing disagreements. The results show that an eight-shot prompt was more effective than one using two, confirming that the inclusion of examples illustrating areas of variability can enhance GPT-4’s ability to recognize multiple moves in a single sentence and reduce bias related to textual position. We suggest that GPT-4 offers considerable potential in automating this annotation process, when human actors with domain-specific linguistic expertise inform the prompting process.

While a growing body of literature has illustrated how neoliberal discourses of English and employment have come to shape English language teaching (ELT) textbooks in a globalized world, little is known about how the translation of these discourses into pedagogical practices is mediated by the social class structures in postcolonial societies. In this article, we draw on a larger qualitative case study to address this gap in the Bangladesh secondary schooling context. We utilize Bourdieu’s conceptual resources and analyze interview and classroom observation data to illustrate how discourses of English and employment introduced into the secondary education-level ELT textbook are enacted in a high socio-economic status school. As our findings illustrate, the students from this school rejected how English was linked to low-profile jobs in the textbook, as this representation contradicted their social class and career aspirations. These findings contribute to the political economy in applied linguistics literature by illustrating how the enactment of the neoliberal discourses of English and employment constructed in the locally produced ELT textbooks is mediated by social class.

The issue of the research of emotional lexemes is conditioned upon pragmatic relations, which constitute an important basis in the definition of expressive language units. The purpose of the research is to analyse features of emotional and expressive linguistic units, considering the cognitive and linguistic nature of words in M. Auezov’s work ‘The Way of Abai.’ The methods used to achieve the research objectives were: generalization, axiomatic, content analysis, and comparative analysis. The results of the work have determined that using words depends on a different range of emotions, where a particular situation influences the traditions and perceptions of the period concerned, developing a linguistic picture of the world. The practical significance of the research is in using the results of the research by linguists, experts, and specialists in the field of pedagogy and linguistics.
