In this article, a tripartite interpersonal model is proposed to analyze academic lectures delivered in English. The model combines two approaches to metadiscourse: the reflexive or narrow approach (Mauranen 1993; Ädel 2006), and the interpersonal or broad approach (Hyland 2005, 2019). The criteria adopted by the reflexive approach were exploited…
