study has been conducted to evaluate transition marker (TM) types in the MA
theses written by the native speakers (NSs) of English and Turkish speakers
(TSs) of English. The purpose is to compare the most salient transition types
of the NSs and TSs randomly selected theses introduction, results and
discussion, and conclusion sections in the field of ELT between 2010 and 2014.
The </span> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Keyword in Concordance (KWIC) </span> <span lang="en-gb" xml:lang="en-gb"> was used to analyze the data. TM
types were analyzed in terms of percentages, frequencies per 1,000 words and
they were interpreted by calculating the log-likelihood (LL) value if there was
a significant difference in their usage. The results illustrated that the
frequencies, and frequencies per 1,000 words of the most salient transition
type usage in the sections were different. </span> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="608" colspan="2" style="width:456.3pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Information about Author(s)* </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="608" colspan="2" style="width:456.3pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center;"> <b> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Author 1 </span> </b> </p> <p> <b> </b> </p> <b> </b> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Author (Last name, First name) </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Köroğlu,Zehra </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Affiliated institution (University) </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Çağ University </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Country </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> Turkey </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Email address </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> zehrakoroglu@gmail.com </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="243" valign="top" style="width:182.5pt;border:solid 1pt;border-top:none;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">Department & Rank </span> </p> <p> </p> </td> <td width="365" valign="top" style="width:273.8pt;border-top:none;border-left:none;border-bottom:solid 1pt;border-right:solid 1pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;"> <p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us">  </span> </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="}, number={2}, publisher={Hacettepe University} }
