Abstract

The issue of student mental health has received increasing attention in online media coverage as academic pressure and institutional demands in higher education have increased. This study aims to analyze how student mental health is represented in the online media Kumparan through a corpus linguistic approach combined with framing theory (Entman, 1993), Fairclough’s (1995; Critical Discourse Analysis 2010), and the corpus linguistic methodological perspectives of Baker (2006) and McEnery & Hardie (2012). The research data consisted of 30 news articles published between 2021 and 2025 and analyzed using AntConc software through word frequency, collocation, and keyword in context (KWIC) techniques. The results showed that students were represented as a vulnerable group experiencing academic pressure, while campuses were ambiguously positioned as both a source of pressure and a provider of psychological support. The main findings explicitly confirm that the media predominantly frames the issue of student mental health in an individualistic manner rather than as a structural or institutional problem. This study reinforces corpus-based media framing studies in the context of the discourse on student mental health in Indonesia.

Abstract

This research examines how victims of natural disasters are represented in the online media coverage of Tribun Bengkulu. The aim of this study is to identify the representation of victims in news texts and explain the tendencies of the resulting meanings. The methods used are corpus-based quantitative and qualitative. The research data consists of 30 disaster news articles published in the period 2023–2025 with a total of 9,261 tokens. The analysis was conducted using AntConc software to trace word frequencies, collocations, and concordance patterns related to victims in the context of news coverage. The results of the study indicate that the words house, resident, victim, affected, and damage are central to the representations in the text. Reporting tends to emphasize physical losses, emergency conditions, and quantitative data collection on the impact of the disaster. Victims are depicted more through material and administrative dimensions than emotional experiences. This study concludes that media language plays a crucial role in constructively shaping public perceptions regarding the social status and conditions of post-disaster victims.
