A Comparative Study on Undergraduate Students' Academic Motivation and Academic Self-Concept
Işıksal Bostan, Mine (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2010-11-01)

A corpus-based analysis of genre-specific discourse of research: the phd thesis and the research article in elt
Işık Taş, Elvan Eda; Enginarlar, Hüsnü; Department of English Language Teaching (2008)
Writing a research article is not an easy task for novice researchers, who begin their study as outsiders in the academic community and who must deal with both the apprenticeship in their fields and the challenge of writing in a new genre. Moreover, PhD thesis is a genre which is very frequently “recontextualized” as a research article by the novice researcher. The aim of this study was to conduct a contrastive analysis of the genre-specific features of introductions in a corpus of theses written in PhD pro...
An investigation of incidental vocabulary acquisition in relation to learner proficiency level and word frequency
Tekmen, E. Anne Ferrell; Daloğlu, Ayşegül (Wiley, 2006-06-01)
This study examined the relationship between learners' incidental vocabulary acquisition and their level of proficiency, and between acquisition and word frequency in a text. Participants were Turkish learners of English at three proficiency levels. One reading text and four vocabulary tests were administered over a two-week period. Analyses of the data revealed that lexical gains from reading were significant for each group (p < .05). The higher proficiency groups were able to acquire more words than lower...
A case study of contextual and individual factors that shape linguistic variation in synchronous text-based computer-mediated communication
Savaş, Perihan (Elsevier BV, 2011-01-01)
The purpose of the study presented here was to learn more about the distinctive features of synchronous text-based computer-mediated communication (SCMC) and to determine what kinds of factors played a role in the production of such features based on the SCMC of an international group consisting of 12 people. The findings of the study indicate that participants demonstrated characteristics of both spoken and written modes of language in their SCMC. There were complex and interdependent factors beyond Englis...
A scoping review of world Englishes in the Middle East and North Africa
Hillman, Sara; Selvi, Ali Fuad; Yazan, Bedrettin (Wiley, 2020-05-26)
This study presents the first scoping review (Arksey & O'Malley, 2005; Levac, Colquhoun, & O'Brien, 2010) of world Englishes (WE) research in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) - providing a knowledge synthesis of studies related to the sociolinguistic dynamics and realities of English(es) in one of the most underexplored WE contexts. Although the burgeoning research on English in the region focuses on macro sociolinguistic issues, language policy and planning, and language teaching and learning, there...
