Abstract

Gaslighting is a form of emotional manipulation that significantly affects a victim’s mental health, leading to confusion, anxiety, depression, and emotional instability. This study analyzes the psychological and behavioral impacts of gaslighting in romantic relationships using Austin’s speech act theory, which includes locutionary, illocutionary, and perlocutionary acts. The analysis focuses on the interaction between the characters Mark and Alicia in the film Your Reality. Data were collected through qualitative analysis of selected dialogues. The findings show that expressive illocutionary acts are the most dominant (37.50%), followed by directives (29.17%), representatives (20.83%), and commissive (12.50%). Psychologically, the most prevalent impact is anxiety (61.11%), reflected in feelings of guilt (22.22%), confusion (16.67%), self-doubt (11.11%), and low self-esteem (11.11%). Depression also appears (5.56%) through feelings of distress. Behaviorally, gaslighting leads to increased obedience and submission (33.34%), seen in over-apologizing (5.56%), prioritizing the gaslighter needs (11.11%), and loss of personal autonomy, such as difficulty making decisions (11.11%). These findings reveal how gaslighting shapes emotional dependency and restricts victims’ ability to act independently. The study highlights the importance of recognizing gaslighting tactics in order to restore autonomy, improve mental health, and break cycles of manipulation in romantic relationships.

Abstract

Love bombing is a dangerous phenomenon in relationships, where a narcissistic perpetrator uses language to manipulate their victim. This study aims to uncover the hidden meanings behind Jake’s love bombing language, revealing the manipulative intent behind his words. A qualitative descriptive approach is employed to analyze the language of love bombing within a narcissistic relationship. The data consists of 50 utterances from the short movie Love Bomb, spoken by Jake, the narcissistic character, towards Skye as his victim. Data were collected through observation, selecting utterances with significant manipulative intent from the official YouTube channel @integratebristol. In the analysis, Jake’s utterances are categorized into two stages of narcissistic abuse based on Grossi: idealization (18 utterances) and devaluation (32 utterances). In the idealization stage, he uses flattering language to create an illusion of love and emotional connection with Skye. As the relationship shifts to devaluation, his language becomes manipulative, controlling, and aggressive, aimed at diminishing Skye’s self-esteem and asserting dominance. Using Searle’s taxonomy of illocutionary acts, Jake’s utterances are classified into assertives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declarations. The findings show that during the idealization stage, Jake’s utterances consist of assertives (38.89%), directives (16.67%), commissives (0%), expressives (44.44%), and declarations (0%). In the devaluation stage, the distribution shifts to assertives (31.25%), directives (43.75%), commissives (18.75%), expressives (6.25%), and declarations (0%). Further analysis using Austin’s speech act theory reveals that Jake’s locutionary acts often differ from his literal meaning, while his perlocutionary effects shape Skye’s emotions and decisions. The study concludes that love bombing conceals strategic manipulation through exaggerated praise, conditional affection, and guilt-inducing phrases. This demonstrates how manipulative language in love bombing enables the perpetrator to maintain power and control in relationships

Abstract

This study examines the use of person and social deixis in Shamsi’s preaching, a Muslim preacher, in Islamic dawah through debate with an atheist at Speaker’s Corner in Hyde Park, London. Using Levinson’s (1983) theory of deixis, the research identifies the types and expressions of deictic language used by the preacher when engaging with a non-believer. The data were taken from the DUS Dawah YouTube channel, specifically from a video titled “An Atheist Thinks It's Okay to Sleep with a Baby”. The analysis adopts a descriptive qualitative method. The finding shows that Shamsi uses all types of person deixis. The most dominant is the second person “you”, which appears 118 times, followed by the first person “I” used 21 times, and third person forms such as “he” and “someone”, each used 6 times. In terms of social deixis, Shamsi employs two categories. In the first category, relational social deixis, the most frequently used form is the referent honorific “Prophet” (9 times). This is followed by formality level expressions, such as “the scholar(s)”, which appear 4 times, and audience honorifics like “everyone”, used 1 time. Meanwhile, addressee honorifics do not appear in Shamsi’s preaching, indicating that this form of honorifics was not used in the interaction. In the second category, absolute social deixis, Shamsi refers to himself with the phrase “I'm Muslim” (1 time) as an authorized speaker, and refers to his opponent with the phrase “as an atheist” (1 time) as an authorized recipient. Overall, both person and social deixis used by Shamsi, functioned as powerful linguistic tools to engage intimacy and effectively convey his Islamic message, by defining identity, asserting authority, emphasizing ideological differences to an atheist in public space.

Abstract

Enhancing student engagement is essential for improving learning outcomes in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) writing classes. This study investigates the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly ChatGPT, to foster engagement through personalized feedback, creative expression, and interactive learning. Conducted at an Islamic university in Indonesia with 80 participants, the research employed a quasi-experimental design to assess ChatGPT’s impact on behavioral, cognitive, and emotional engagement. Participants were divided into control and experimental groups, with the latter utilizing ChatGPT for brainstorming and instructional support. The results showed significantly higher engagement levels among the experimental group across all dimensions, highlighting ChatGPT’s role in creating student-centered environments that enhance traditional teaching methods. By offering real-time, tailored assistance, ChatGPT boosts motivation and deepens cognitive and emotional connections to learning tasks. This study contributes to the growing literature on AI in education by demonstrating ChatGPT’s effectiveness in EFL writing instruction and emphasizing the need for innovative, AI-integrated pedagogical approaches to enrich learning experiences. Future research should explore the broader applications of AI in language education, addressing scalability, diverse learner needs, and long-term impacts on academic performance.

Abstract

Desa Silado merupakan desa yang prospektif untuk pengembangan pariwisata karena letaknya yang strategis, sumber daya manusia yang memadai, dan aspek sosial budaya. Faktor-faktor ini sangat penting namun membutuhkan investasi besar, terutama dari sisi pendanaan. Desa tidak dapat mengalokasikan bantuan dana tersebut, yang pada akhirnya menghambat kemajuannya. Oleh karena itu, tim memanfaatkan kesempatan ini untuk memecahkan masalah dengan memfasilitasi warga desa melalui kegiatan diskusi kelompok yang bertujuan untuk menggali, mendiskusikan, mengklasifikasikan, dan mempromosikan potensi wisata melalui situs web. Penduduk desa yang terlibat dalam program ini adalah 16 anggota Kelompok Sadar Wisata Silado. Program berlangsung selama enam bulan dan terbagi dalam tiga kegiatan utama: (1) presentasi oleh tim pelaksana tentang pentingnya pengembangan desa wisata dan branding serta promosi desa wisata di era globalisasi; (2) diskusi kelompok untuk mendapatkan dan mengklasifikasikan data sumber daya pariwisata Silado; dan (3) desain web oleh tim pelaksana sebagai media promosi pariwisata. Hasil program menunjukkan bahwa Desa Silaso ternyata memiliki tiga objek wisata yang menjanjikan: alam, budaya, dan pendidikan. Di sisi lain, perancangan website diusulkan untuk mempromosikan keunikan dan elemen ikonik Silado sebagai desa wisata. Pengunjung website dapat dengan mudah menemukan elemen ini pada logo dan tagline desa wisata Silado yang bertuliskan "Tilik Dewi Domas: Desa Wisata Silado Banyumas". Tagline ini terutama bertujuan untuk mengajak pengunjung melihat, menjelajah, dan menikmati destinasi wisata di Silado.
