Detail Using Web-Based Syntactic Complexity Analyzer to Analyze Sentence Complexity in The Introductions of Undergraduate Students’ Research Articles   Oleh:  Dewi, Ratna Jenis: Article from Proceeding Dalam koleksi: The 62st TEFLIN International Conference: Teaching and Assessing L2 Learners in the 21st Century, Denpasar, 14-16th September 2015, Book 4, page 266-274. Topik: Syntactic complexity; Introduction of undergraduate students’ articles; Web-based syntactic complexity analyzer Fulltext: hal 266.pdf (9.39MB) Isi artikel There has been no specific research related to syntactic complexity in the Indonesian context, especially those employed in the undergraduate students’ research articles. Syntactic complexity characterizes sentences in academic written texts and delineates the writers overall development of sentence complexity use in the target language (Mukminatin, 1997; Lu, 2010) . This research paper aims to show the implementation of syntactic complexity in the intorduction of the undergraduate students’ research articles. It employes a quantitative design through corpus based analysis using Web-based Syntactic Complexity Analyzer. The students’ sentence complexity is shown through the values of mean length of production units, the amount of subordinations, the amount of coodinations, and the degree of phrasal sophistication employed in the introduction of the students’ research articles. The findings show that the students employ the four categories of sentence complexity in their academic texts. Further analysis is also done to describe the patterns of the students’ sentence complexity in each category, then compared to the patterns of syntactic complexity identified by uefap. The results of this research are expected to provide information about the syntactic complexity employed in undergraduate students’ research articles and to show its resemblance to the patterns of syntactic complexity which have been previously identified. In addition, the results of this research would be beneficial in providing information for the lecturers in guiding their students and for undergraduate students to write academic texts.
