CHAPTER IV FINDINGS DISCUSSION

This chapter consists of two parts; findings and discussion of the study. The research findings present the data of the findings of turn-taking irregularities in The Last Song movie. The data are served with the frequency of interruptions presented by the characters in the movie. Further, detail explanation is presented in the discussion section. This section presents the detail descriptions on each datum of turn-taking irregularities in The Last Song movie.

A. Research Findings

In order to give brief image of the frequencies and percentage of each type of turn-taking irregularities and their purposes, a table is provided below. Table 2. The Frequencies of the Occurrence of Types Turn-taking Irregularities in The Last Song Movie No Types of Interruption Frequency Percentage

2. Intrusive

3. Recognitional

5 14.71 11 32.35 Total 34 100 Table 2 shows two main types of turn-taking irregularities, namely interruption and overlap. Each type of the category is shown in the table. There are two types of interruption; intrusive and cooperative, while the types for overlaps are recognitional, transitional, and progressional. All those types of turn-taking irregularities can be found in the movie. However, the number of occurrences in each type is different. In fact, this study finds that intrusive interruption appears the most often in The Last Song movie. Intrusive interruption occurs 20 times. This finding is very interesting related to the other types of turn-taking irregularity. The number is very significant compared to the other types. It can be seen in the table that intrusive interruption dominates the occurrence with 20 occurrences 58.82. In the other hand, the smallest occurrence belongs to progressional overlap which occurs only once 2.94 in the movie. Meanwhile, in order to give brief image of the frequency and percentage of the purposes for doing turn-taking irregularities, a table is provided as follow.
