E. Data Analysis Technique
The next step after collecting the data was data analysis technique. In analysing the data, textual analysis was employed to analyse the data. According to
Vanderstoep2009: 211 textual analysis focuses on the identification and
interpretation a set of text based on the researcher’s perspective. Each perspective on meaning caused different interpretation of a text. In this research, the researcher
was the interpreter of selected text. The process of data analysis is stated in details as in the following:
1. transferring and classifying the data collected into the data sheet, 2. interpreting the data according to the context where this data was taken,
3. discussing the data with supervisor and colleagues who are linguistics students, and
4. making description of the data and drawing conclusion.
F. Trustworthiness
To validate the finding of this research, the researcher applied triangulation which is the combination of methodologies in the study of the same phenomena or
programs Patton, 1980:108. To enhance the validity of the finding, Moleong2001:173 states that four categories of data trustworthiness such as
credibility, dependability, conformability, and transferability. Those categories of data trustworthiness had to be applied to check and prove the data. Credibility and
conformability were chosen to triangulate the data of this research. Credibility means that the result of the research was credible or believable
from the perspective of the research participants. If the research is credible, then the conclusion of the research was supported by the findings. The researcherused a
consistence and appropriate methodology as well as systematic and comprehensive literature reviewto enhance the credibility of the research. Meanwhile,
conformability refers to the neutrality of the research interpretation to check how
