Abstract

Forensic voice comparison (FVC) is gaining global recognition as a scientific method for speaker identification in legal proceedings. In Indonesia, however, the application of FVC remains underdeveloped, despite increasing reliance on digital and audio based evidence in criminal cases. This study presents a legally and methodologically robust framework for implementing FVC within the Indonesian judicial context. The research integrates Indonesian legal standards (KUHAP Articles 183–184, UU ITE) with international forensic protocols, including ISO/IEC 27037 for digital evidence handling. A combination of acoustic features MFCCs, F0, formants, and VTLN was extracted from disputed and reference voice samples. Likelihood ratios (LRs) were calculated using Gaussian Mixture Models, with score calibration via logistic regression. Results showed mean log LR values of 2.1 for genuine trials and –1.8 for impostor trials, with an ROC AUC of 0.91. Visual tools, including Tippett plots and ROC curves, were used to interpret and communicate evidence reliability. The findings confirm that calibrated, probabilistic FVC methods are feasible and legally admissible in Indonesia. However, challenges remain in handling low quality recordings, maintaining chain of custody, and bridging communication gaps between scientific experts and legal practitioners. The study recommends structured training, standardized protocols, and the use of visual aids to enhance evidentiary transparency. This framework lays the foundation for a scalable, court ready FVC system aligned with national law and global best practices. It supports interdisciplinary cooperation aimed at strengthening Indonesia’s forensic infrastructure.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of psychosocial perception particularly prestige, social proximity, and identity in shaping structural convergence in multilingual contact zones. Focusing on four language pairs from Southeast Asia and Latin America, the research applies a dual-index model combining the Structural Convergence Index (SCI) and Psychosocial Index (PI) to evaluate the relationship between linguistic similarity and social perception. Structural features were extracted from typological databases (WALS, Grambank, PHOIBLE), while perception data were gathered via surveys measuring intergroup attitudes and identity alignment. Quantitative analysis revealed a strong positive correlation (r = 0.78) between SCI and PI scores, indicating that communities with higher perceived social proximity and shared prestige norms exhibited greater grammatical convergence. The study also identified domain-based variation, with convergence most pronounced in institutional contexts (e.g., schools, administration). In contrast, resistance to convergence particularly in the Fronterizo–Spanish case highlighted the impact of identity boundaries and sociopolitical ideologies. These findings support emerging models that treat language convergence as both a structural and socially mediated process. The SCI+PI model contributes a replicable and scalable method for assessing contact-induced change, advancing theoretical and methodological frontiers in contact linguistics. The results underscore that convergence is not only a linguistic outcome but also a reflection of social alignment, identity dynamics, and intergroup perceptions.

Abstract

This study presents a narrative review of the role of teacher beliefs in language education and their influence on pedagogical practices. The review aimed to synthesize current research to identify how teacher cognition interacts with contextual factors such as policy, culture, and institutional support. A systematic search was conducted across databases including Scopus, Web of Science, ERIC, and Google Scholar using keywords such as teacher beliefs, pedagogical practices, EFL teaching, ESL methodologies, multilingual education, and professional development. Inclusion criteria focused on peer-reviewed studies published between 2010 and 2025. The literature revealed that teacher beliefs significantly shape the adoption of strategies like task-based learning and communicative approaches, although their enactment is often constrained by standardized curricula and assessment policies. Social and cultural contexts strongly mediate these dynamics, with teachers in developed contexts more likely to realize student-centered practices than those in resource-limited systems. Positive beliefs toward technology integration were widespread but frequently undermined by inadequate training and infrastructure. Professional development was consistently highlighted as an effective mechanism for transforming teacher beliefs and aligning them with innovative pedagogies. The discussion emphasizes the systemic barriers—including workload, rigid evaluation frameworks, and limited support—that hinder teachers from implementing their convictions. The findings suggest the need for flexible policy frameworks, increased institutional support, and targeted training to bridge the gap between teacher beliefs and pedagogical practices. Future research should pursue longitudinal and comparative studies to further explore these relationships and their impact on student learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study reviews the development of pragmatic competence within digital communication platforms, aiming to synthesize evidence from recent literature and assess both opportunities and challenges. The review employs a systematic methodology, drawing from databases including JSTOR, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and Wiley Online Library, and applying inclusion criteria covering studies published between 2015 and 2024. The findings highlight five central themes: authenticity and context, intercultural diversity, personalization and adaptivity, technological barriers and access gaps, and the potential of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, gaming, and virtual reality. Evidence shows that authentic digital contexts and intercultural exchanges foster pragmatic awareness, while adaptive learning technologies enhance individualized instruction. However, significant barriers persist, including infrastructural inequalities, socio-economic disparities, and digital literacy gaps that constrain equitable access to pragmatic learning. Comparative studies suggest that learners in technologically advanced regions benefit more readily from these innovations than those in developing contexts. The discussion links these findings to pragmatic theory, emphasizing the role of systemic factors such as policy and infrastructure, and identifies the need for inclusive strategies to ensure equal opportunities. Recommendations include the development of longitudinal and cross-cultural research, as well as practical integration of advanced technologies into mainstream education. Overall, the study underscores the urgent need for combined strategies that integrate authenticity, intercultural awareness, personalization, and technological innovation to enhance pragmatic competence in digital communication.

Abstract

Social media has become a transformative force in global communication, accelerating processes of linguistic change in unprecedented ways. This review aims to synthesize current research on how digital platforms reshape language through neologisms, semantic shifts, non-standard grammar, and sociolinguistic dynamics. A systematic search was conducted across databases including Scopus, Web of Science, JSTOR, and Google Scholar, using targeted keywords and rigorous inclusion criteria. Studies employing both qualitative and quantitative methods were analyzed to capture a comprehensive picture of digital language evolution. Results indicate that platforms such as Twitter, TikTok, and Reddit foster distinctive forms of linguistic innovation shaped by technological affordances and community practices. Neologisms and acronyms emerge rapidly, semantic changes redefine meanings of common words, and syntactic flexibility challenges traditional norms. Sociolinguistic factors, particularly age and community identity, drive adoption, while systemic influences such as globalization and digital connectivity accelerate diffusion. These findings highlight not only the creative adaptability of language but also the challenges posed by polarization and the erosion of traditional registers. The discussion emphasizes the need for inclusive language policies, translanguaging pedagogy, and teacher training to address these shifts. Limitations in current research include insufficient focus on syntax, underrepresentation of non-Western contexts, and methodological challenges in analyzing unstructured digital data. Future research should address these gaps to enhance understanding of digital linguistics. By situating social media as both a mirror and catalyst of linguistic change, this study underscores its central role in shaping communication in the twenty-first century.
