D. Data Analysis

Vanderstoep and Johnston 2009: 199 mention that there are five research methods in analyzing data, i.e. ethnography, phenomenology, case study, textual analysis, and applied research. This research employed textual analysis, which involved the identification and interpretation of a set of verbal and behavioral communication of the main character as a schizophrenic in The Uninvited movie. Generally, this research employed some steps of data analysis as follows. 1. Firstly, the themes that emerged from the raw data were identified, and then they were categorized into either types of hallucination, delusion, or formal thought disorder. 2. Then, each categorization was classified by using a data sheet. 3. After that, each datum which had been classified in the data sheet was analyzed based on the research questions. 4. Then, each datum was interpreted based on its context to answer the three research questions. 5. Then, the research findings were reported through textual description. 6. Finally, some conclusions were drawn.

E. Trustworthiness

To establish the validity truthfulness and reliability consistency of the data, research will employ triangulation Vanderstoep and Johnston, 2009: 179. According to Hussein 2009: 3, triangulation is a kind of validity procedure where a researcher uses the combination of two or more methodological approaches, theoretical perspectives, data sources, investigators, or analysis methods to study the same phenomenon. Therefore, there are five types of triangulation, i.e. methodological triangulation, theoretical triangulation, data triangulation also referred to data sources triangulation, investigator triangulation, and analysis triangulation. To enhance the trustworthiness of the data, this research employed theoretical triangulation by referring to schizophrenia theories from various books and journals, especially those containing information about hallucination, delusion, and formal thought disorder. Moreover, the findings of the research were triangulated by the researcher’s two fellow university students majoring in linguistics. 40
