THE DEPRESSION SYMPTOMS IN THE PIECES OF A WOMAN BY KORNEL MUNDRUCZO (2020)
type: item
description: The study aims to identify and analyze the symptoms of depression reflected in the main character and how the main character copes with her depression in the film Pieces of a Woman. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method and uses Beck and Alford's (2009) theory of depression as the primary framework. The findings show that Martha exhibits several key symptoms of depression, such as emotional, cognitive, motivational, vegetative, and physical manifestations. Furthermore, the study reveals how Martha copes with her depression through a progression of strategies such as Cognitive Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The significance of these findings lies in providing a deeper psychological understanding of how depression is represented in film, particularly in portraying grief-related depression. This study contributes to literary and film analysis by demonstrating the relevance of psychological theories in interpreting character development and mental health issues, as well as offering insight into coping mechanisms that may raise awareness of depression and its treatment in real-life contexts

THE STUDENTS PERCEPTION OF GOOGLE FORM AS AN ASSESSMENT TOOL IN LISTENING INTEPRETATIVE COURSES
type: item
description: The transition to online learning during the global pandemic necessitated a rapid shift toward digital evaluation tools within higher education. This study explores students' perceptions of Google Forms as an assessment tool in the Listening Interpretative Course at the English Department of Universitas PGRI Jombang. This study employed a qualitative descriptive methodology. Data were collected through a combination of closed-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with students who utilized Google Forms for their listening assessments. The data were analyzed using the interactive model by Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, involving data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that students generally hold a positive perception of Google Forms, citing its user-friendly interface, accessibility via mobile devices, and the efficiency of instant feedback as primary benefits. However, negative perceptions emerged primarily due to environmental factors, such as unstable internet connectivity and audio synchronization issues, which triggered frustration and temporary rejection of the tool. The study concludes that while Google Forms is an effective instrument for digital evaluation, its success in a listening context depends heavily on stable infrastructure and the maintenance of human-to-human instructional support to mitigate technology-induced anxiety.

TEENS, TEXT, AND TECHNOLOGY: THE PERCEPTION OF HIGH SCHOOL EFL WRITERS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
type: item
description: This study investigated senior high school EFL students’ perceptions of artificial intelligence (AI) in English writing activities. The study employed a qualitative descriptive design with purposive sampling involving eight EFL students in Jombang Regency who had prior experience using AI. Data were collected through open-ended questionnaires distributed via Google Forms and analyzed using thematic analysis. The results revealed two main themes: Academic Writing Support and Usability and Accessibility. Students perceived AI as beneficial for generating ideas, improving grammar, enhancing sentence clarity, organizing writing structures, increasing writing efficiency, and boosting their writing confidence. They also considered AI tools easy to learn, accessible across devices, and suitable for self-directed learning, although minor technical issues and concerns about dependence were noted. Beyond extending the constructs of perceived usefulness and ease of use from the Technology Acceptance Model, the results highlighted AI’s role as both a cognitive and emotional support system in writing. The study concluded that AI functioned not only as a technical aid but also as a reflective learning partner, shaping students’ autonomy and identity as writers. These insights suggested that AI could be integrated effectively into English language learning, provided that it is used ethically and supported by pedagogical guidance.

AN ERROR ANALYSIS OF DESCRIPTIVE TEXTS WRITTEN BY FIRST-SEMESTER EFL STUDENTS: A SURFACE STRATEGY TAXONOMY APPROACH
type: item
description: The present study sought to identify grammatical and syntactic errors in EFL students' descriptive writing. The study was conducted on the basis of the observation that first-semester students had recently encountered difficulties accurately applying English grammar in creative and descriptive contexts. Given the importance of English syntax in academic settings, this research was conducted at a private university in Tangerang Selatan. There were 10 participants in this study who were enrolled in the first semester and had recently completed descriptive writing assignments. To obtain accurate data, the researchers collected student-written descriptive essays through a qualitative study employing a case study design. The students were asked to produce texts describing themselves. These essays were then analyzed using the Surface Strategy Taxonomy proposed by James (1998) to identify, classify, and report linguistic patterns. Under this category, errors were classified into four types: omission, addition, misformation, and misordering. The result showed an interpretation of how students manipulate the surface structure of the target language. The findings of this research are expected to shed light on common issues and suggest that identifying these specific patterns is very influential in improving writing and confidence.

LEARNERS’ ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE SIMS 4 IN BOOSTING THEIR ENGLISH VOCABULARY MASTERY
type: item
description: This study investigates Indonesian learners’ attitudes toward using The Sims 4 to boost English vocabulary mastery, aiming to identify learners’ vocabulary learning challenges and examining how digital simulation games influence motivation and contextual vocabulary acquisition among English as a foreign language learners aged 18–25. The study employed a mixed-method explanatory sequential design, collecting quantitative data from 99 respondents through a Likert-scale questionnaire followed by semi-structured interviews with selected participants. Descriptive statistics and thematic analysis were used to analyze learners’ perceptions, experiences, and challenges related to vocabulary learning through gameplay. The findings reveal that learners generally perceive The Sims 4 as motivating, enjoyable, and effective in supporting contextual and daily-life vocabulary learning, particularly by providing meaningful exposure through simulated real-life activities. Therefore, while The Sims 4 enhances learners’ engagement, motivation, and incidental vocabulary acquisition, it should be used as a supplementary learning tool to boost students’ vocabulary mastery. It is recommended that educators combine digital games with traditional vocabulary teaching strategies to maximize meaningful learning activities.

A STUDIES ON THE DIFFICULTIES OF USING REGULAR AND IRREGULAR VERBS: ANALYSIS AND SOLUTION
type: item
description: This research aimed to analyze the difficulties faced by senior high school students in mastering regular and irregular verbs in English learning and to identify possible solutions to overcome these difficulties. This study employed a qualitative method. The participants of this research consisted of ten twelfth-grade senior high school students and one English teacher in the academic year 2024–2025. The data were collected through writing tests with the students and the teacher to obtain information related to students’ learning difficulties, learning errors, and the causes of those errors in using regular and irregular verbs. The results of the study showed that students’ mastery of irregular verbs was still relatively low. Most students experienced difficulty in distinguishing between base forms, past forms, and past participles. Generally, they had difficulty differentiating regular and irregular verbs, tended to overgeneralize by adding -ed to all verbs, and had limited ability to memorize and recall the V2 and V3 forms of irregular verbs. In addition, instructional factors such as limited reinforcement and a focus on written grammar exercises rather than meaningful language use contributed to students’ difficulties. Therefore, this research suggests that English teachers should apply more contextualized and communicative teaching strategies with consistent reinforcement to improve students’ mastery of regular and irregular verbs.

THE CORRELATION BETWEEN ENGLISH SPEAKING ANXIETY AND STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT AT UNIVERSITAS MUHAMMADIYAH LAMPUNG
type: item
description: The purpose of this research was to investigate the impact of English speaking anxiety and academic achievement among second-semester English Education students at Universitas Muhammadiyah Lampung. Despite the recognized importance of speaking skills in EFL contexts, many Indonesian students experience significant anxiety that potentially impacts their academic performance. This research used a quantitative approach. The data were collected from 13 students through the adapted Speech Anxiety Thoughts Inventory (SATI) and speaking assessments evaluated with Brown and Abeywickrama's (2019) rubric. The Pearson correlation analysis showed a strong negative relationship between speaking anxiety and academic achievement (r = -0.876, p = 0.001), with anxiety accounting for 76.7% of the variance in speaking scores. Qualitative analysis of questionnaire responses identified fear of negative evaluation, limited vocabulary, and lack of confidence as primary anxiety sources. While the strong correlation indicates a significant relationship, the study's limitations, including small sample size and correlational design, preclude causal inferences. The finding underscores the need for pedagogical interventions addressing affective factors in language learning and suggests directions for future research with larger samples and experimentally designed.

UNVEILING THE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS' MOTIVE OF USING TABOO WORDS IN DAILY CONVERSATION
type: item
description: This study was conducted at three private universities in East Java: one non-religious campus and two religious-based campuses. This research aims to explore the reasons behind the use of taboo words in daily conversations among university students. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, using questionnaires and interviews as data collection tools. The data sources for this study included online questionnaires and interviews with several students. The data were analyzed based on Battistella’s (2005) classification of taboo words and Jay’s (2009) Theory. The findings reveal that the primary reasons for using taboo words were to express emotions, strengthen social bonds among close friends, add humor, and react spontaneously to certain situations. This research indicates that students tend to use taboo words deliberately and contextually, mainly in social settings where they feel comfortable and free from formal constraints. Frequent exposure to social media and peer influence significantly contributes to the development of this linguistic behavior in students’ everyday communication

STUDENTS’ ATTITUDES TOWARD ENGLISH AND THEIR ACHIEVEMENT IN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL - A CORRELATION STUDY
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the relationship between students' attitudes toward English learning and their English achievement at the senior high school level. A quantitative correlational approach was employed, with a sample of 86 high school students in Jakarta selected via simple random sampling. Data were collected using a validated 20-item Likert-scale attitude questionnaire, measuring affective, cognitive, and conative components, and documentation of academic scores from semester report cards. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant positive relationship (r = 0.724, p = 0.001) between students' attitudes and their academic achievement. The findings suggest that positive attitudes, encompassing interest, motivation, and self-confidence, play a crucial role in enhancing English learning outcomes by potentially lowering the affective filter and increasing engagement. This study provides practical implications for pedagogical strategies, curriculum design, and school policy, emphasizing the need to foster positive affective domains in English language teaching to enhance learning quality in the Indonesian senior high school context.

STUDENTS’ EXPERIENCES OF USING DEEPL IN EFL WRITING CLASSROOMS: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW
type: item
description: In education, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies significantly assist students in their language learning. One of the technologies is DeepL. Thus, it is essential to identify the factors shaping students’ positive experiences, as well as the challenges they face, while utilizing DeepL, specifically for their English writing activities. To complete the study’s goal, the writer used the Google Scholar database to explore fifteen peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2020 until 2025. The findings of this study could be divided into five themes: (1) DeepL gives accurate translation results, (2) DeepL improves users’ ability in writing, (3) DeepL offers various alternative words or synonyms, (4) DeepL causes students over reliance on the tool, and (5) DeepL struggles with translating specialized items. Each theme’s discussions provide information about relevant studies, offer practical suggestions (e.g. expanding the scope of literature review by incorporating a wider range of academic databases and source types) to address the limitations, and suggest future research directions (e.g. investigating the long-term effects of DeepL on students’ writing skills and methods teachers can employ to reduce students’ dependency on the tool).

TIKTOK AS A SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCE ON LANGUAGE CHANGE AMONG STUDENTS OF ITEBIS PGRI DEWANTARA JOMBANG
type: item
description: The way university students use language is changing rapidly due to TikTok. This study aims to address that issue by looking at how students incorporate TikTok phrases into their in-person conversations as part of a larger shift in language. The research included four female college students from ITEBIS PGRI Dewantara Jombang, selected using purposive sampling. Information was collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed qualitatively. The findings indicate that students frequently and unknowingly use phrases such as damn, pick me, red flag, healing, and cringe in their everyday conversations. These expressions go beyond online platforms, serving as means to convey humor, sarcasm, emotions, and social connections. Their usage reveals an unconscious adaptation, signifying identity and belonging within a community. The results show that the way these terms are used flexibly often points to a continuous change in spoken language influenced by interactions with peers and current trends. Therefore, TikTok serves not just as a source of entertainment but also as a driving force for informal language innovation, bringing in new phrases and promoting language evolution from the ground up within student groups.

A STUDY OF LEXICAL AND STRUCTURAL DIFFERENCES IN MOBY DICK AND ITS INDONESIAN TRANSLATION
type: item
description: This study investigates the lexical and structural differences between Herman Melville’s Moby Dick and its Indonesian translation, with a focus on preserving the novel’s symbolic, philosophical, and stylistic complexity. Using a qualitative descriptive approach rooted in translation theory, the study critiques existing strategies such as literal translation, transcreation, adaptation, and omission, and introduces a new model, CLASTIC (Contextual Lexical and Structural Translation with Intercultural Calibration). This model addresses the shortcomings of conventional methods by emphasizing contextual interpretation, semantic layering, structural adaptation, and cultural negotiation. Findings reveal that literal translation often leads to a loss of narrative tone and symbolic depth, while uncalibrated adaptation risks distorting authorial intent. The CLASTIC Model successfully bridges linguistic accuracy and cultural sensitivity, offering a comprehensive and applicable framework for translating literary texts from English into Indonesian. The study concludes that effective literary translation demands both interpretive creativity and intercultural awareness, especially when dealing with canonical works marked by complex symbolism and narrative style.

PROFESSIONAL WRITING ANXIETY AMONG INDONESIAN EFL STUDENTS: TYPES, CAUSES, AND COPING STRATEGIES
type: item
description: This study investigated professional writing anxiety among English Education students at Pattimura University, examining anxiety levels, types, causes, and coping strategies in workplace communication contexts. Using a sequential explanatory mixed-methods design, 57 students completed adapted Professional Writing Anxiety Inventory and Professional Writing Anxiety Causes Inventory instruments, while 12 purposively selected participants engaged in semi-structured interviews. Results revealed moderate anxiety levels across the population (M = 3.17), with cognitive anxiety emerging as the dominant dimension (M = 3.47), followed by somatic anxiety (M = 3.32) and avoidance behavior (M = 2.73). Time pressure served as the primary trigger for somatic responses, with 66.6% of students experiencing heart palpitations during time-constrained professional writing tasks. Causal analysis identified insufficient practice in professional writing formats (M = 3.67), linguistic difficulties (M = 3.63), and time pressure concerns (M = 3.60) as primary contributing factors. Qualitative findings revealed four sophisticated coping strategies: systematic preparation and quality control, cognitive and environmental regulation, social support utilization, and emerging technology integration. The study demonstrates that professional writing contexts create distinct anxiety patterns compared to general academic writing, requiring specialized pedagogical approaches. These findings contribute theoretical understanding of context-specific anxiety manifestation while providing evidence-based guidance for Professional Writing curriculum development in Indonesian EFL contexts.

REPRESENTATIVENESS BIAS IN SYLVIA TOWNSEND WARNER’S THE PHOENIX
type: item
description: Representativeness bias occurs when possible similarity of an object shadows the real condition. This mental shortcut, as accentuated by Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman, is affiliated with Gambler’s Fallacy. The Phoenix is Sylvia Townsend Warner’s short story released in 1940. This story tells about a phoenix set on a display to the audience. The owner wanted to kill it since its death would show amusement of fire. The phoenix died as the fire came out and burned the place including the owner and the spectators. Then, how is representative bias illustrated on Sylvia Townsend Warner’s The Phoenix? Through qualitative methods on psychological and literary studies, this article asserts the owner’s misconception of the phoenix. The bird’s specialty was its rare exoticness and myth about being immortal. The owner was shadowed with greed by opposing the true state of nature. He then had to accept the bitter truth of death as the pyre burned all out including himself and other persons. In conclusion, the story shows how representative bias accompanied with greedy thought may ignore otherness by accentuating mere profit.
