Abstract

This research explored how sequence organization is used to build humor in podcasts, specifically in the episodes of Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend with Tom Hanks and Raditya Dika’s podcast with Indro Warkop. Using a descriptive qualitative method based on Conversation Analysis, the research utilized Schegloff's (2007) sequence organization framework as the main tool for analysis, while Norrick's (1993) conversational joking theory, Hay's (2001) humor response model, and Berger's (1993) linguistic techniques of humor were used as additional reference frameworks. Through analysis, nine instances of humor sequences were uncovered in Tom Hanks’ talk and four in that of Indro Warkop. The research disclosed that humor in both podcasts was majorly structurally dependent on non-minimal post-expansion, yet their implementation of it was quite different. Whereas Tom Hanks' jokes were mainly derived from a variety of adjacency pair types and sequences initiated by himself with quite compact punchline delivery and operated mostly through irony, exaggeration, allusion, and infantilism. Indro's humor was mostly supported on question-answer pairs as structural points of entry and narratives in post-expansion that were gradually developing comic tension before punchline delivery through exaggeration, irony, and facetiousness. The study has brought to light that sequence organization was one of the major ways through which humor was engaged with in podcast talk collaboratively.

Abstract

This study examines the YouTube short video titled “KEMARAHAN PARA HEWAN KE MANUSIA!!!” as a case study of digital humor critiquing mystical stigma against animals. The video features personifications of a black cat, black crow, black chicken, and albino crocodile protesting human labeling. This research aims to reveal the construction of cultural signs, humor mechanisms, and linguistic strategies in delivering critique. A qualitative descriptive-interpretative approach is employed with an integrated analytical framework: Roland Barthes' semiotics, humor theory (Incongruity and Script Opposition), and digital sociolinguistics. The findings show that the albino crocodile serves as a pivot, expanding the critique from black-color-based stigma to the mystification mechanism against bodies perceived as “other,” rare, or atypical. Humor is constructed through role reversal and script opposition between mystical and critical perspectives, while informal language (gue, guys, boleh join?) functions as a pragmatic mitigation strategy that softens critique without being patronizing. The study concludes that digital humor in this video functions as myth deconstruction and critique of the cultural tendency to marginalize physical differences.

Abstract

Music videos and song lyrics function as cultural texts through which gender ideologies are both reinforced and contested. Despite growing interest in feminist media studies, few studies have integrated lyrical and visual analysis of contemporary pop music using Simone de Beauvoir's foundational concept of women as "The Other." This study analyzes how Katy Perry's 2024 song "Woman's World" represents female identity and women's empowerment through its lyrics and official music video. Employing a qualitative descriptive method grounded in de Beauvoir's The Second Sex (1949/2011), and supplemented by postfeminist media criticism, this study examines verbal and visual data,  including lyrics, costumes, body movements, and symbolic props through three analytical themes: the reversal of male-coded public spaces, female subjectivity, and symbolic resistance to gender stereotypes. The findings reveal that "Woman's World" constructs women as active, self-determining subjects who reject the subordinate position of "The Other" through dominant visual symbols and lyrical narratives. However, the analysis also identifies a recurring paradox in which feminist empowerment is simultaneously undermined by the entertainment industry's commodification of the female body. This study contributes to media feminist scholarship by demonstrating both the emancipatory potential and the commercial contradictions inherent in feminist representations within contemporary popular culture.

Abstract

The film Deadpool (2016) presents a distinctive form of heroism that challenges the traditional representation of superheroes as morally ideal and law-abiding figures. This study analyzes how Wade Wilson is represented as an antihero through the film's narrative structure, applying Seymour Chatman's narrative structuralism alongside Prusa's mechanisms of positioning, motivation, and charisma. Employing a qualitative structuralist approach, data were collected through repeated film observation and classification of relevant narrative elements, including character, plot, conflict, and point of view. The findings reveal that positioning operates at the discourse level as a pre-emptive focalization strategy, securing audience alignment through non-linear sequencing and fourth-wall address before story-level moral information is available; motivation is distributed across Todorov’s disruption and recognition stages as a set of causally anchored story events that ground transgression in recognizable human vulnerability; and charisma functions across both levels simultaneously, converting story-level suffering into discourse-level affective appeal through tonal dissonance and metalepsis. Rather than functioning as the co-present cluster Prusa describes, these three mechanisms appear in this film to operate as an ordered reception sequence enabled by the film's discourse-level arrangement: discourse-level positioning prepares the ground on which story-level motivation can be received sympathetically, and charisma consolidates what both have established. On the evidence of a single case we advance this ordering as a hypothesis about how the mechanisms interact, not as a demonstrated law of antihero narrative.

Abstract

Language in the media is rarely neutral, particularly on magazine covers, which frequently serve as a medium for social critique. This study is motivated by the polemic surrounding the revision of the Indonesian Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), which has raised public concerns regarding the restriction of civil liberties. This research aims to: (1) describe the construction of verbal, visual, and spatial elements on the cover of Tempo Magazine's 'KUHAP! Lalu Ditangkap!' edition; (2) identify the interaction among these multimodal elements in constructing discursive meaning; and (3) uncover the representation of unequal power relations through these multimodal features. This study employed a qualitative descriptive method, integrating Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) with Gunther Kress and Theo van Leeuwen’s Multimodal Discourse Analysis (MDA). The results indicate that the verbal mode utilizes concise and satirical diction. Meanwhile, the visual mode illustrates the dominance of the authorities over the KUHAP book, which is depicted as a dog on a leash, a metaphor suggesting that the law is entirely under the control of the law enforcement apparatus. The interconnectedness of these modes effectively constructs and highlights an imbalance in power relations. These findings confirm that mass media cover design operates as a social practice capable of implicitly influencing public perception regarding the power dynamics among the law, the state apparatus, and civilians.

Abstract

Overlap in geopolitical debates, particularly the Israel-Palestine conflict, remains underexplored in conversation analysis research. This study addresses that gap through the case of “Can Israel Make Peace with Hamas?”, a debate on the Open to Debate YouTube channel marked by confrontation between speakers holding opposing positions. Using Jefferson's (1983)overlap-onset framework and Schegloff's (2000) resolution mechanisms, this qualitative case study analyzes 133 turns of talk produced by two debaters, Cenk Uygur and Mosab Hassan Yousef, and moderator John Donvan, to identify overlap types and how speakers manage simultaneous talk. The findings reveal 24 instances of overlap onset (18.04%), with recognitional onset as the most dominant type, accounting for 16 instances (12.03%), followed by transitional onset with 8 instances (6.01%), and no progressional onset observed. As for resolution, 22 instances were identified (16.54%), with withdrawal as the most frequent mechanism, accounting for 10 instances (7.52%), followed by persistence with 8 instances (6.02%) and acoustic upgrade with 4 instances (3.01%). These findings demonstrate that overlap functioned as a deliberate rhetorical strategy reflecting power, urgency, and argumentative control in this case, not as a generalizable claim about geopolitical debate.

Abstract

This paper examines the techniques of English teachers in conducting process-focused Differentiated Instruction using a Project-Based Learning approach in zoning-based English classrooms. The introduction of the zoning system has increased heterogeneity among the classrooms, where teachers need to manage issues such as students' varying English proficiency levels, motivation, readiness, participation, and self-confidence. This paper employs a qualitative research design where two English teachers at one public senior high school in Kartasura are involved as participants. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and lesson plan analysis. The study revealed three major findings. First, English teachers implemented several process-focused differentiation practices, including heterogeneous grouping, differentiated task distribution, flexible pacing, scaffolding, continuous monitoring and feedback, collaborative learning, and student autonomy. Second, the implementation of process-focused differentiated instruction in the classroom faced several challenges, such as varying levels of English proficiency, difficulties in addressing diverse learning needs, low student motivation and readiness, unequal participation in group work, and differences in students' confidence. Third, teachers addressed these challenges through adaptive strategies, including scaffolding, task differentiation, flexible instruction, active monitoring, direct intervention, and constructive classroom interaction.

Abstract

This study examines the representation of repetition compulsion in Sonny Hayes, the protagonist of “F1: The Movie” (2025), whose persistent return to dangerous racing despite past trauma exemplifies an unresolved psychological pattern rarely examined in film scholarship. While prior studies have addressed trauma recovery or applied alternative frameworks such as logotherapy to fictional characters, none has combined Freud's repetition compulsion with Todorov's narrative theory to analyze how this specific psychological condition is structurally embedded within a film's plot. This study addresses that gap by synthesizing Freud's psychoanalytic theory of repetition compulsion with Todorov’s narrative stages, creating a dual-framework approach to analyze how psychological pathology is structurally encoded in cinema. By mapping four clinical forms of compulsion such as unconscious drive, reenactment, connection to trauma, and attempt at mastery, onto the film's five-stage plot progression, the research demonstrates that character behavior is not merely a plot device but a systematic representation of unresolved psychic wounds. The findings identify four forms of repetition compulsion unconscious drive, reenactment of painful experiences, connection to trauma, and attempt at mastery structurally organized across Todorov's five narrative stages. This study contributes a specific analytical model for tracing psychoanalytic conditions through narrative structure, offering a concrete reference point for future studies examining repetition compulsion in other film characters.

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now becoming a technology increasingly integrated into student’s academic writing practices, particularly in English writing tasks. AI offers the convenience of assisting students with real-time feedback, but its use also has the potential to impact affective aspects, such as writing anxiety. With its increasingly widespread use, it is important to conduct a study to understand how students utilize AI in English writing tasks and to examine the relationship between the use of AI and student's writing anxiety. This study used a quantitative approach, collecting data from 106 Department of English Education student at Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta as respondents through a Likert-scale questionnaire and regression analysis using SPSS. The results of the study indicate that students use AI in a high frequently for various purposes. Furthermore, a positive relationship was found between the use of AI and writing anxiety, although the strength of the relationship was weak. These findings suggest a correlation, but cannot be interpreted as a direct cause-and-effect relationship. It is crucial for educators to utilize and guide the use of AI in a more structured manner in learning and encourage further research related to the deeper exploration of student’s affective aspects.

Abstract

This study examines how co-occurring sign-processes in an advertisement generate multiple interpretations. The object of analysis is the Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans advertisement released by American Eagle in July 2025. The advertisement attracted widespread public attention because it gave rise to two publicly documented interpretations: a commercial interpretation confirmed by the brand and a biological interpretation associated with eugenics discourse reported in news media. Drawing on Peirce's trichotomies and Bateman's account of co-occurring sign-processes, this study analyzes the verbal and visual elements across four selected segments using a descriptive qualitative approach. The findings show that the ambiguity does not result from the combination or blending of different sign categories into a single sign. Rather, it arises from the co-occurrence of distinct verbal and visual sign-processes in which the phonetic qualisign /dʒiːnz/ is realized as a spoken sinsign capable of instantiating two competing symbolic legisigns, “genes” and “jeans”. These sign-processes enable divergent dynamic interpretants to develop simultaneously.
