Primacía epistémica en géneros interaccionales: atenuación, intensificación y territorio
2018
En la última década, ha surgido dentro del Análisis Conversacional una corriente teórica en torno al concepto de primacía epistémica en interacción, dentro de la cual se concibe la transmisión de información como una cuestión de territorio. En este trabajo, se analizan secuencias de aserciónacuerdo en conversaciones y entrevistas con el fin de mostrar que los mecanismos de atenuación e intensificación empleados por los hablantes funcionan como huellas de la interpretación que hacen los interlocutores de la situación en términos de posicionamiento epistémico. Se argumenta que existen casos de congruencia epistémica –cuando los interlocutores convergen en su interpretación de la situación– y …

Las funciones interactivas del marcador español ‘¿no?’ Las fronteras entre la atenuación y la protección de la imagen
2020
In this paper the functions of the Spanish discourse marker ?no? are analysed from a pragmatic and an interactive perspective. Specifically, we explore the values of ?no? taking the pragmatic phenomena of mitigation and boosting, as well as the notion of affiliation as described in conversation analysis. The previous literature devoted to the study of this linguistic form has consistently identified its uses as a confirmation request or a phatic device (Fuentes, 1990, 2009; Santos Rio, 2003; Garcia Vizcaino, 2005; Montanez, 2008, 2015; Rodriguez Munoz, 2009; Moccero, 2010; Santana, 2017). This work, however, analyses how the mitigating uses interact and share features with neighbouring cate…
From noticing to initiating correction: Students’ epistemic displays in instructional interaction
2014
Abstract By drawing on conversation analysis and the analysis of embodiment-in-interaction, this article describes students’ locally situated, interactional practices of demonstrating knowledge in teacher-led instructional interaction in the English lessons of a Content-and-Language-Integrated-Learning (CLIL) class. It focuses on students’ correction initiations that are preceded by embodied noticings – interactional events that are performed through different kinds of visibly intensified embodied and material practices. The analysis demonstrates how the embodied noticings serve as a preamble to the ensuing correction initiation and help project participant's stance toward the noticed featu…
Lexical cohesion revisited. A combined corpus and systemic-functional analysis
2018
In this chapter I argue for a refinement of the classic SFL approach to lexical cohesion. First, a literature overview is provided in which key principles and related categories are examined. In addition, the connection of cohesion and discourse co-herence is addressed and an overview is provided of the wide range of applications that the former has in such fields as genre studies, language teaching and learning, psycholinguistics and computational linguistics, among others. The core SFL models of cohesion are then revisited in order to propose a modified taxonomy of lexical co-hesion, involving five distinct types (repetition, synonymy, opposition, inclusion and association) that are cross…
Opening a Conversation on Open Communication Research
2021
Abstract Many disciplines have been debating and enacting a range of policies, procedures, and practices that fall under the umbrella term “open research” or “open science.” Following the publication of “An Agenda for Open Science in Communication”, we invited communication scholars to continue the conversation on what open research practices broadly might mean for our diverse field. Specifically, we sought work that: looked empirically at the need for and impact of open research practices; considered the unintended consequences of calls for open research practices broadly; and that reflected on what such a move would mean for qualitative and humanistic communication research. We hope the c…
Student-initiated multi-unit questions in EMI classrooms
2021
This conversation analytic study investigates student-initiated multi-unit questions (MUQs) in whole class interaction. Based on a corpus of 30 hours of videotaped interactions from teacher education classrooms in an English-medium instruction university, we demonstrate that students use MUQs to introduce topics, either by recontextualizing some aspect of the prior topic, or alternatively, without these cohesive ties, which requires more interactional work to achieve intersubjectivity. Findings reveal that MUQs render student professional concerns more relevant and salient, foregrounding those inquiries as a space for launching topics. Students bring up issues such as ways of handling parti…
MODULAR KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION IN ADVISOR AGENTS FOR SITUATION AWARENESS
2011
A modular knowledge representation framework for conversational agents is presented. The approach has been realized to suit the situation awareness paradigm. The modularity of the framework makes possible the composition of specific modules that deal with particular features, simplifying both the chatbot design process and its smartness. As a proof of concepts we have developed a modular, situation awareness oriented, KB for a conversational agent, which plays the role of an advisor aimed at helping a user to be in charge of a virtual town, inspired to the SimCity series game. The agent makes an extensive use of semantic computing techniques and is able to perceive, comprehend and project c…
Bilingual practices and the social organisation of video gaming activities
2010
Abstract Grounded in the interactional paradigm for the study of bilingual language use, this paper investigates how players engaged in a collaborative game-playing activity orient to the co-presence of two languages in the setting and deploy bilingual resources in organising their action and participation. The analysis aims to demonstrate how a particular kind of ‘bilingual order’ ( Cromdal, 2005 ) is co-constructed in which the players use their native language (Finnish) for interaction with each other, but systematically draw on the language of the game in constructing their turns as recognisable and building their alignments with respect to activities under way. The analysis highlights …
Otra vez sobre las funciones de la intensificación en la conversación coloquial
2017
espanolLa intensificacion es una estrategia pragmatica que colabora en el ambito retorico-argumentativo como refuerzo de lo dicho o del punto de vista propio o ajeno, ya sea coincidente o contrario, y en el ambito social como mecanismo de refuerzo, ya sea valorizador o amenazante de la imagen propia o ajena. Nuestro objetivo aqui es describir y explicar las funciones, en general, de la intensificacion en esos dos ambitos (argumentativo y social) y, sobre todo, sus valores en la conversacion cotidiana, a partir de un analisis cualitativo sobre el corpus Val.Es.Co. de conversaciones coloquiales (Briz y grupo Val. Es.Co., 2002 y Valesco 2.0, en linea: www.valesco.es, coordinado por Cabedo y Po…
