CHAPTER III

RESEARCH METHOD

In this chapter will explain the research method that researcher used to analyze

the problem. It includes the research design, the data source, subject, data collection,

instruments data analysis, and the research time frame. All the processes of doing the

research are explains in this chapter.

3.1 Research Design

The research design used in this study is Descriptive Qualitative and it will

use Discourse Analysis (DA) approach. According to Baxter (2008), as cited in

Litosseliti (2010) the approach focuses on studying language in its own right. There

are four key in approach that I am going to use for this research; principle of

variability, constructed and constructive nature of language, interpretative repertoire

and a combination of micro- and macro-analytical approaches.

3.2 Data Source

The data will be taken from the movie entitled ‘The King’s Speech’ which

directed by Tom Hooper. This movie is about a king in England named George VI

who has to overcome his speech disorder due to fulfill his obligation as a king to give

some speech in some critical moment during the era. This movie created based on

true event, so the main character in here is real. Here are some details of the movie:

3.2 Subjects

To collect the data, the researcher will focus on analyze the main character in

the movie entitled ‘The King’s Speech. The main character here was the king who

ruled England at that time. He was believed as the only leader who had speech

disorder in England. King George VI is very unconfident if he had a task to giving

speech in public. As a leader of a country such British in the war era, he had to make

sure his people felt comfortably and peace to head the war throughout his speech.

But, unfortunately, he found very difficult to produce a single word in public.

3.3 Data Collection

In the first step, using the computer, the researcher played the movie and

observed the story and dialogue first. After doing quick observation and the movie

ended, the researcher played the movie once again by handing a note and ready to

write some important scripts that will be analyze for the research. The important

script such as some dialogues happened between the King and his therapist; some

words productivity during the King speech in public, some dialogues between the

King and people surrounding example; wife and brother. Then, the researcher used

some dictionaries to translate some of the difficult meaning that appeared in the

script. After that, the researcher checked the observation by watching the video again

and done some notes that probably found after several times watching the movie.

3.4 Instruments

There are some instruments used by the researcher such as computer,

hand-writing notes, and dictionary.

3.4.1 Researcher

The researcher here has some important roles in order to organize the

thesis. One of the roles is searching and collecting data from many resources.

Then, after the data was taken and collected, I will be analyzed it. Here, I am

Sa’adah who took the role as researcher.

3.4.2 Computer

This instrument used to play the movie. As the consideration of important

scene and dialog, the researcher chooses computer rather than television to make

the observation effectively. As we know that in gathering the dialog and

understanding the scene, we sometimes have to pause it and reply back to some

scene which include important dialog to analyze.

3.4.3 Hand-writing notes

The researcher collected data by making some notes during the

observation of the movie. It is the most important instrument as the data must be

collected quickly during the movie play on. The hand-writing notes will help the

researcher to mark some important language that appeared in the dialog.

3.4.4 Dictionaries

This instrument helped the researcher to find the meaning of a difficult

term or some words that unfamiliar during the observation of the movie. So, the

researcher was able to understand quickly about the content in the dialog. The

dictionaries that the researcher used are English Dictionary by Longman and

English Dictionary by Oxford.

3.6 Data Analysis

Ary (2006), as cited in the proposal seminar by Ahmad Rusdi (2009),

proposed three stages in analyzing qualitative data; 1. Familiarization and

organization, 2. Coding and recording, 3. Summarizing. So, based on the previous

explanation, the researcher analyzed the data by some steps. Firstly, the researcher

read and re-read the script and data that has been write before and collected from the

movie. For organizing the data the researcher arranged the hand-writing notes.

Secondly, the researcher done the coding step or re-arrange the data into categories as

the answer of the research problem. And the last step is summarizing the qualitative

data. Then, the researcher able to describe the data on detail that embodies all of the

research problem.
