  • The Speech Act of Greeting Performed by Russian Efl Learners
    THE SPEECH ACT OF GREETING PERFORMED BY RUSSIAN EFL LEARNERS By GALINA SHLEYKINA Bachelor of Arts in Russian and English Petrozavodsk State University Petrozavodsk, Russia 1998 Master of Arts in Russian and English Petrozavodsk State University Petrozavodsk, Russia 1998 Doctor of Philosophy in Russian Petrozavodsk State University Petrozavodsk, Russia 2007 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May, 2016 THE SPEECH ACT OF GREETING PERFORMED BY RUSSIAN EFL LEARNERS Dissertation Approved: Dissertation Adviser Dr. Gene Halleck Committee Member Dr. Dennis Preston Committee Member Dr. Rebecca Damron Outside Committee Member Dr. Lesley Rimmel ii Name: GALINA SHLEYKINA Date of Degree: MAY, 2016 Title of Study: THE SPEECH ACT OF GREETING PERFORMED BY RUSSIAN EFL LEARNERS Major Field: ENGLISH Abstract: The present study centers on interlanguage and cross-cultural pragmatics. It investigates semantic formulas in the speech act of greeting performed by Russian EFL learners. In particular, it compares the non-native speakers’ (NNS) and native speakers’ (NS) production of semantic formulas in terms of their number, frequency, and content. Secondly, the study examines the NSs’ perception of NNS greetings for their pragmatic appropriateness and identifies areas that influence the ratings. A Free Discourse Completion Test (FDCT) containing 16 situational prompts was used to elicit greetings by the English NNSs and NSs. Retrospective interviews were additionally administered to triangulate the data. The NNSs’ greetings were rated by the NS raters on a four-point scale for their pragmatic appropriateness. The results show that the NNSs significantly deviate from the NSs in terms of number, frequency, and content of greetings strategies, namely, greetings proper, phatic questions and phrases, address terms, and situational greetings.

  • A Guide for Developing Community and Individual Walking Programs
    THE AMERICAN COUNCIL ON EXERCISE PRESENTS WALK THIS WAY! A GUIDE FOR DEVELOPING COMMUNITY AND INDIVIDUAL WALKING PROGRAMS Walking_Toolkit_Community_KM.indd 1 10/9/15 3:30 PM The American Council on Exercise (ACE), a leading non-profit health and fitness organization, is dedicated to ensuring that individuals have access to well-qualified health and fitness professionals, as well as science- based information and resources on safe and effective physical activity. Ultimately, we want to empower all Americans to be active, establish healthy behaviors and live their most fit lives. ACE envisions a world in which preventable, lifestyle-related diseases—such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and some forms of cancer—are on the decline because people have been understood, educated, empowered, and granted responsibility to be physically active and committed to healthy choices. We are excited that the Surgeon General used the influence of his position to draw attention to physical inactivity—a critical public health issue—and to create a pathway to change the sedentary culture of this nation through his introduction of Step It Up! The Surgeon General’s Call to Action on Walking and Walkable Communities. A CE strongly supports this emphasis on walking and walkable communities as part of our mission and commitment to fighting the dual epidemics of obesity and inactivity, and creating a culture of health that values and supports physically active lifestyles. But we know that we can’t accomplish our mission alone. Creating a culture of health will require the focus of policymakers, the dedication of fitness professionals, and the commitment of individuals to live sustainable, healthy lifestyles.

  • Celluloid Anthropology
    CELLULOID ANTHROPOLOGY Film, after all, is more than mere Uncle Ike and my father, Jacob celluloid. It is socially constructed within a three-cornered association between filmmakers, film spectators, and the film texts themselves, and at every point in that nexus of relationships we encounter negotiation and interaction involving active social beings and institutionalized social practices.--Andrew Tudor, “Sociology and Film” As a bit of tea-soaked madeleine summoned Marcel’s memories of holidays in Combray, the aroma of sandalwood soap, simply cooked lentils, and hot sweet milk with a cream skin call up the general sensation of one period I spent in India. Sparing my kind father from her hormonal vicissitudes, my pregnant and homesick mother left Chicago for the duration of her pregnancy and took me along to her maternal house. There she was properly pampered and I was entertained by a merry cast of characters from a world to which I belonged, all of us in giddy anticipation of my sister’s birth. Like those “sonorous, fragrant, limpid hours” Proust’s protagonist spent in the country, the time I spent as an only child suddenly plunged into a warm extended family continues to affect and color my life. I cling to the sense of security, contentment, and connection I sensed in what was, for six months, my world instead of the one I so lightly inhabit. So shocked I was by our return to America that when I saw my own sweet father I blinked at him frankly and said, “I’m shy of you.” The people of that faraway land were very different from the quiet wintry Chicago to which we returned, and if I was borne of that world then I was forever very different too.

Generally, the biggest single . thing and it seemed to happen regularly enough, as I became old enough to be aware of it, was people who were in very modest economic means having children; new babies.
