Third-Person Direct-Object Anaphora In Translation From English Into Brazilian Portuguese: A Corpus-Based Study Of Juvenile Texts Reflecting Orality, Marcella Cascione Cerqueira Netto Dec 2025

Third-Person Direct-Object Anaphora In Translation From English Into Brazilian Portuguese: A Corpus-Based Study Of Juvenile Texts Reflecting Orality, Marcella Cascione Cerqueira Netto

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The third-person accusative clitics in Brazilian Portuguese (BP) are virtually extinct in spoken language and informal writing, although formal texts and contexts still retain them. Speakers often mark third-person direct objects using the stigmatized full pronouns (syncretic with the nominative forms), null objects, or full noun phrases (NPs), also referred to as lexical NPs. The realization of these forms is not arbitrary; it is influenced by the semantic properties of the referents, particularly animacy (mainly humanness) and specificity. Animate referents [+animate] tend to be realized with overt pronouns, whereas inanimate [–animate] ones tend to be used with null objects. This …


Asking Nicely: Americans’ Perception Of Jordanian Arabic Speakers’ Politeness When Making Requests In English, David Henen Dec 2025

Asking Nicely: Americans’ Perception Of Jordanian Arabic Speakers’ Politeness When Making Requests In English, David Henen

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study examines how Arabic-speaking Jordanian male graduate students at an American university in Mississippi employ request directness strategies and modifications as polite devices in oral English, and how American native speakers perceive these requests. Drawing on Brown and Levinson’s (1987) Politeness Theory and the Cross-Cultural Speech Act Realization Project taxonomy (Blum-Kulka et al., 1989a, 1989b), this study employed a mixed-methods design to examine request production and perception. Data were collected from six American English native speakers from Mississippi and six Arabic-speaking Jordanian international students, all at the same university, through six discourse completion tasks, six role-plays, and semi-structured interviews. …

To improve the writing skills of ninth-grade students (N=30), a quasi-experimental study was conducted with two groups of students.

The one-way ANOVA results indicated no significant difference in writing performance between the two groups …


Exploring The Relationship Between Secondary Student Perceptions Of Teacher Involvement And Student Academic Success In Online Social Studies Courses, Thomas Matthew Herrington Dec 2025

Exploring The Relationship Between Secondary Student Perceptions Of Teacher Involvement And Student Academic Success In Online Social Studies Courses, Thomas Matthew Herrington

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The rapid growth of online learning in secondary education has highlighted the need to better understand factors that contribute to student success. While considerable research has examined online learning at the postsecondary level and in state-tested subjects, little attention has been given to social studies courses. This qualitative study explored the relationship between secondary students’ perceptions of teacher involvement and their academic success in asynchronous online social studies courses. Participants included 22 students from two accredited high schools in Mississippi, one fully online and one traditional brick-and-mortar school, both of which offered asynchronous social studies courses approved by the state …
