摘要：http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1984-8412.2017v14n2p2096 The Systemic Functional Grammar defines transitivity as the system responsible for codifying human experiences. Based on such perspective, the aim of the current study is to identify the different configurations that material-type processes may take in specific interactive contexts, as well as to investigate the discursive motivations for such codifications. In order to do so, we have selected eight descriptive parameters that allow making a more systematic analysis of the choices made in the transitivity system. In addition, we have estimated the correlations between the selected parameters in order to understand the degree of interdependence between the linguistic factors. The analyzed clippings comprised 131 material-type clauses from 31 texts belonging to the genre “journalistic news”. The data analysis performed through the Self-Organizing Maps and through the estimation of simple correlation, which allowed seeing, for example, the relation between metaphorical expressions and the concealment of agentive entities.
