CHAPTER III METHODOLOGY
This chapter covers the methodology used in the present study. As mentioned in Chapter I, this study seeks to investigate slips of the ear among Indonesian students,
particularly in the lexical and syntactical errors. The rest of this chapter presents the research design, subject of the study, data collection, data analysis, and example of
data analysis.
3.1 Research Design
This study applied a descriptive qualitative approach because this study analyzed data by observing misperception which has made by students. A qualitative approach is
relevant to this study since it focuses on the observation in which the data are in descriptive narratives forms such as notes, pictures, videotapes, and recordings
LeCompte Preissle, 1994. Qualitative research involves non numerical data such as interview research. In addition, it is concerned with opinions and experiences of
individuals Dörney, 2007. It also involves collecting, classifying, evaluating and interpreting Cohen, Manion, Morrison, 2000. Descriptive research is concerned
with the description of data and the goal is the acquisition of factual, accurate, and systematic data which can be used in averages, frequencies, and similar statistical
calculations Schmidt, 2002. The purposes of the study are to investigate the slips of the ear that happen when students listen to selected music and which sounds are
misperceived most by the students. The data are analyzed by using Bond’s 2005 theory to examine which part of the lyrics that student misperceived.
