Verification of communicative types in the judicial public space of media discourse in the USA, Kazakhstan and Russia as a psycholinguistic marker of fact-checking

Keywords: discourselogy, communicative behavior, judicial and legal system, NLP, comparative studies, confidence marker.

Abstract

Modern psycholinguistic research and fact-checking actively explore the space of media discourse. However, the representation of the judicial space in the mass media has not been sufficiently studied due to the peculiarities of communicative behavior in the judicial and legal space of the ethno-socius and the attitude to the judiciary. The authors hypothesize that the differences in public behavior in court and the coverage of the work of courts in the American, Kazakh and Russian media are due to the socio-cultural features of the phenomena of judicial and legal communication in public space under the influence of established traditions in such coordinate systems as “person – judicial system”, “openness – closeness of society”, “unity – disunity of society”, “accessibility – stigmatization”, “court – journalistic investigation”, etc. The results confirm the hypothesis of the authors' team, revealing the difference in the perception of the judicial system in the USA, Kazakhstan and Russia, illustrating the "rejection" of the Soviet and post-Soviet stigmatization of the judicial and legal space by the Kazakh society towards democratic norms. The prospects of the study are related to the subsequent development of an automatic system for evaluating speech behavior strategies in court and their coverage in the media as a category of fact-checking.
