<![CDATA[This study examines speech errors found in the speech of Jati, a character with Asperger’s syndrome, in the film Aku Jati Aku Asperger (2024) from a psycholinguistic perspective. This study aims to identify the types of speech errors in Jati’s utterances and analyze their occurrence in relation to speech production processes, pragmatic functions, and interactional contexts. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach. The data consist of all of Jati’s dialogue in the film, which was examined through observation and transcription, then identified and classified based on Clark and Clark’s theory of speech errors. The results show 20 occurrences of speech errors, categorized into four types: 1 silent pause, 15 filled pauses, 3 repeats, and 1 stutter. Filled pauses are the most dominant type. The analysis shows that these four types of speech errors are not only associated with speech production disfluency but also occur during response formulation, turn management, message emphasis, and particular interactional situations. This study contributes to Indonesian psycholinguistic research by demonstrating the importance of analyzing speech errors based on both their linguistic forms and the production contexts and communicative functions involved in the representation of a character with Asperger’s syndrome through film.]]>
