Abstract

This study examines how Indonesian cultural identity is represented and rendered in two children’s narratives, Hari Istimewa Suwidak Loro and Mau Masak Apa, Lintang?, through the identification of culture-specific lexical items and the translation strategies applied, based on Newmark’s (1988) framework. The findings indicate that material culture—particularly culinary references such as botok, klepon, and serabi—is the most prevalent category, followed by social culture, which includes kinship terms and communal practices. These categories reflect the translators’ emphasis on tangible and relational aspects of Indonesian life, suggesting that food and familial terms serve as culturally resonant vehicles for transmitting values and traditions to young readers. Six translation strategies were identified, with functional and cultural equivalence being the most frequently employed, indicating a prioritization of accessibility. Meanwhile, transference and amplification were used to preserve cultural specificity. These findings underscore the role of translation in mediating cultural representation and enhancing cross-cultural understanding through children’s literature.

Abstract

This study aims to explain the behavior of the main character, Jack, in the film Room (2015) using the behaviorist theories of John B. Watson and B.F. Skinner. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a behaviorist psychological approach. Data were collected through repeated viewing of the film, note taking, and identification of behavioralpatterns related to stimulus and response. The analysis focuses on classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and internal factors that influence behavior. The results of the study indicate that Jack’s behavior is shaped by various external stimuli, including conditioned responses to daily routines and social interactions within his limited environment. Operant conditioning is evident through Jack’s behavioral changes in response to consequences and rewards. Additionally, internal factors such as emotions, self-awareness, drives, and goal and intentions play a significant role in Jack’s responses and adaptation to his environment. These findings support the behaviorist perspective that human behavior is shaped and learned through interactions with the environment.
