Abstract

This research is motivated by the existence of the inner speech phenomenon that occurs when someone reads silently. This phenomenon is allegedly related to gathering and processing information when the reading process is carried out. This study investigates the mechanism and determines the optimal conditions in the inner speech mechanism. This study aims to compare the inner speech mechanism in reading scientific articles in Indonesian and English. The method used in this study is a multiple qualitative case study. Qualitative data were used to describe the comparison of inner speech in reading scientific articles in Indonesian and English. Data processing produces three levels of categories which are divided into: (1) high reading score; (2) average reading score and; (3) low reading score. These data are correlated to produce an optimal inner speech area in the process of silent reading. This study concludes that (1) the optimal inner speech mechanism used in silent reading of Indonesian articles is BA-18, while in English, it is BA-10 and BA-11; (2) the difference in Broadmann Area localization in silent reading activity is influenced by cognition and the language used by the respondents.
