NON-FINITE CLAUSES IN THE INTRODUCTION SECTION OF SKRIPSIS AND RESEARCH ARTICLES


Non-finite clauses are clauses which have no tenses. This study aimed to find the forms and functions
of non-finite clauses in the introduction section of skripsis (ISoS) and research articles (ISoRA) in
English field. Content analysis was used in this research. The ISoS and the ISoRA were selected
randomly. The findings showed that there were three forms of non-finite clauses in the ISoS and
ISoRA. In terms of functions, there were non-finite clauses as minor clause, qualifier, epithet, nonfinite clauses as conjunction, non-finite clauses after conjunction, circumstance, prepositional phrase,
actor, goal, carrier, attribute, possessive, identified, identifier, phenomenon, behaver, and existent.
The ISoS were frequently presented in non-finite constructions as minor clauses and had more nonfinite constructions in clause simples rather than clause complexes. The non-finite constructions in
the introduction section of skripsis and research articles made the clauses dense.
