Epistemic modality in English scientific paper and its practical implications in EAP class
The present paper will identify the prototypical markers of epistemic modality in the self-compiled corpus of 20 scientific papers in psychology and presents their distribution across the rhetorical sections of the paper. In addition, possible pragmatic motivation likely to underlie the usage of epistemic modality markers is also discussed. Secondly, the paper suggests some in-class activities which should prompt the EAP students to identify epistemic modality markers in different sections of the research papers and their contextual usage. It is assumed that practical implications of such activities should raise consciousness about the distribution of the most salient epistemic modality devices and improve students' level of pragmatic competence in EAP class.
