Resumo: This paper aims to identify the impact of sex, age, mother tongue and the context of the first contact or of the learning process of the Portuguese language on learners’ abilities to establish cohesive features in written texts. The study adopts qualitative and quantitative approaches as well as theories on the role of social variables and previous linguistic knowledge to develop competencies in non-mother tongue. Data used in this study comprise texts written by undergraduate students in second year of honors in Mozambican Sign Language. Findings from data analysis reveal that the four variables play significant role as triggers of difficulties in establishing cohesive features in written texts. Therefore, it is recommended that teachers, students and society at large adopt strategies and policies to improve competencies in the Portuguese language and allow students to write cohesive texts.

O objetivo deste estudo é identificar o impacto das variáveis sociais sexo, idade, língua materna e contexto dos primeiros contactos ou da aprendizagem do português no estabelecimento dos mecanismos de coesão em textos escritos por estudantes moçambicanos de graduação. O estudo baseia-se numa abordagem mista e nas teorias sobre o papel das variáveis sociais e do conhecimento linguístico prévio no desenvolvimento de competências em línguas não maternas. A base empírica é constituída por textos escritos por estudantes universitários que se encontram no segundo ano do curso de graduação em Língua de Sinais de Moçambique. Os resultados da análise de dados indicam que as quatro variáveis são significativamente determinantes na ocorrência de dificuldades de estabelecer os mecanismos de coesão textual. Neste contexto, recomenda-se que sejam adotadas estratégias e políticas de ensino e de aprendizagem que permitam que os alunos melhorem as competências em português e consigam escrever textos coesos.ANPOLL2023-09-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/185410.18309/ranpoll.v54i1.1854Revista da Anpoll; Vol. 54 No. 1 (2023); e1854Revista da Anpoll; v. 54 n. 1 (2023); e18541982-78301414-756410.18309/ranpoll.v54i1reponame:Revista da ANPOLL (Online)instname:Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)instacron:ANPOLLporhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/article/view/1854/1374Copyright (c) 2023 Revista da Anpollhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNhatuve, Diocleciano2024-01-26T18:34:39Zoai:ojs.revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br:article/1854Revistahttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/indexONGhttps://revistadaanpoll.emnuvens.com.br/revista/oairevistadaanpoll@gmail.com1982-78301414-7564opendoar:2024-01-26T18:34:39Revista da ANPOLL (Online) - Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Letras e Lingüística (ANPOLL)false
