Resumen
Los objetivos del estudio son abonar a la teoría de alfabetizadores (LBs), quienes son cruciales para producir textos académicos (ATs) (Lillis y Curry, 2010), y revelar prácticas sociales (SPs) y el apoyo que reciben 21 hombres y mujeres investigadores de lengua cuando redactan tesis/artículos en inglés en una universidad mexicana. Frecuencias de encuestas y entrevistas temáticamente analizadas revelaron alfabetizadores académicos, de lengua y de lengua informales, así como apoyo sobre el inglés, escritura académica, contenido, investigación, estímulo y motivación. Los alfabetizadores contribuyen al aprendizaje de la escritura académica en inglés, la redacción de tesis/artículos de manera colaborativa, el desarrollo de diversas habilidades de escritura e investigación y el logro de la redacción de tesis/artículos.
