摘要
This study investigates the use of Attitude Markers(AMs) by native academic authors of English (NAAEs) and Turkish-speaking academic authors of English (TAAEs) in 100 academic articles on Teacher Education. The primary objectives are to examine the forms and functions of AMs used by both groups to indicate their stance in articles and to compare the frequency and variety of AMs used by each group. The study employs a corpus-based approach and adopts a graph visualization method to present the findings. The data were cleaned using a software-supported approach to improve the efficiency of corpus compilation. The data were analyzed using the Antconc text analysis tool (Anthony, 2011) and Log-likelihood statistics. The reliability of the analysis was tested by calculating the inter-rater reliability. To do this, the content coded by one of the researchers and an independent rater was compared using Cohen's Kappa coefficient. The results ranged from 0.81 to 0.92, indicating a high level of reliability. Later, the findings were visualized using a radial knowledge graph. The statistical analysis showed significant differences in the use of certain AMs between the two groups, including AMs related to "assessment" (-13,20 LL; p<.01) and "significance" (-82,64 LL; p<.01). The findings indicate that both NAAEs and TAAEs commonly use AMs to convey their stance, with 'significance' and 'assessment' being the most frequent functional categories, and 'adjective' being the most commonly used form of AMs in both corpora. The findings provide valuable insights into the use of AMs in academic writing and can inform the development of English for academic purposes (EAP) course materials to enhance the academic writing skills of novice writers. The results of the study suggest that future research could use graph visualization to carry our corpus studies and could explore the effectiveness of using Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to minimize human bias in qualitative analyses.
