Poetic diction routinely involves two complementary classes of features: (i) parallelisms, i.e. repetitive patterns (rhyme, metre, alliteration, etc.) that enhance the predictability of upcoming words, and (ii) poetic deviations that challenge standard expectations/predictions regarding regular word form and order. The present study investigated how these two prediction-modulating fundamentals of poetic diction affect the cognitive processing and aesthetic evaluation of poems, humoristic couplets and proverbs. We developed quantitative measures of these two groups of text features. Across the three text genres, higher deviation scores reduced both comprehensibility and aesthetic liking whereas higher parallelism scores enhanced these. The positive effects of parallelism are significantly stronger than the concurrent negative effects of the features of deviation. These results are in accord with the hypothesis that art reception involves an interplay of prediction errors and prediction error minimization, with the latter paving the way for processing fluency and aesthetic liking.
From June 26th to July 2nd 2023 the International Conference on Conversation Analysis (ICCA) took place in Brisbane/Meanjin, Australia – after a long pause due to the Covid-pandemic and for the first time in the southern hemisphere. About 350 participants from about 50 different countries attended the conference. This year’s ICCA came up with 36 panels and about 300 papers that were presented. Four plenary speakers have been invited and 24 pre-conference workshops took place. On Wednesday evening Ilana Mushin, in her role as conference chair, officially opened ICCA. The President of the International Society of Conversation Analysis (ISCA), Tanya Stivers, also welcomed all participants. To get acquainted with the indigenous culture of Queensland, the opening ceremony was enriched with a highly impressive dance performance by First Nations people. After the official inauguration the international community met at the Welcome Reception to look forward together to the days ahead with many opportunities for exchange and networking.
As it will become clear throughout this report, the research topics revolved around not only classic CA concepts, but also importantly concerned embodiment, which continued the line of past conferences (Dix 2019). Another aspect that has been highlighted was conflict and social norms. Due to personal capacities, we can only present a selection of presentations within the scope of this conference report. The selection was influenced by the personal interest of the authors and should not be understood as rating in any sense.
This study investigates other-initiated repair and its embodied dimension in casual English as lingua franca (ELF) conversations, thereby contributing to the further understanding of multimodal repair practices in social interaction. Using multimodal conversation analysis, we focus on two types of restricted other-initiation of repair (OIR): partial repeats preceded or followed by the question word what (i.e., what X?/X what?) and copular interrogative clauses (i.e., what is X). Partial repeats with what produced with rising final intonation are consistently accompanied by a head poke and treated as relating to troubles in hearing, with the repair usually consisting of a repeat. In contrast to these partial repeats, copular interrogative clauses are produced with downward final intonation and accompanied by face-related embodied conduct. The what is X OIRs primarily target code-switched lexical items, the understanding of which is critical for maintaining the repair initiator’s involvement in the ongoing sequence. This study also contributes some general reflections on the possible complexity of OIR and repair practices from a multimodal perspective.
Pseudo-coordinated sitzen and stehen in spoken German: a case of emergent progressive aspect?
(2023)
This paper investigates the aspectual potential of posture verb pseudocoordination in spoken German. In a corpus study of sitzen ‘sit’ and stehen ‘stand’, it is shown that despite a preference for activity verbs, verbs of all aspectual classes occur in the second conjunct. The posture verb imposes its durative meaning component on the second verb, thus making a progressive interpretation of the construction possible. Apart from this emergent aspectual function, German posture verb pseudocoordination has a subjective function (conveying the speaker’s beliefs about the subject referent’s stance), and a discourse pragmatic function (information packaging).
Our current era of globalization is characterized above all by increased mobility, namely by the increasing mobility of people and the development of new communication technologies, including the mobility of linguistic signs and resources. This process raises new theoretical and methodological questions in linguistics, which results in the development of a new sociolinguistics of globalization (Blommaert 2010) in recent years. One of the most obvious ways to trace this new and dynamic development is to analyze individual language repertoires, especially those of migrants. In this essay, I examine aspects of the communicative repertoire of a refugee who fled to Germany in 2015 to escape the civil war in Syria. I draw on two interviews I conducted with him (in the following I refer to him by the pseudonym „Baran“). The first interview with Baran was recorded in 2016, a few months after his arrival in Germany. The second interview is from 2023, seven years later. In both recordings, German was the dominant language of interaction. I will analyze and show the characteristics of his German at the beginning of his immigration, how he resorts to practices of language mixing between German, Turkish and English (which has recently also been referred to as translanguaging) and how his German has developed over the course of the past seven years.
This article investigates mundane photo taking practices with personal mobile devices in the co-presence of others, as well as “divergent” self-initiated smartphone use, thereby exploring the impact of everyday technologies on social interaction. Utilizing multimodal conversation analysis, we examined sequences in which young adults take pictures of food and drinks in restaurants and cafés. Although everyday interactions are abundant in opportunities for accomplishing food photography as a side activity, our data show that taking pictures is also often prioritized over other activities. Through a detailed sequential analysis of video recordings and dynamic screen captures of mobile devices, we illustrate how photographers orient to the momentary opportunities for and relevance of photo taking, that is, how they systematically organize their photographing with respect to the ongoing social encounter and the (projected) changes in the material environment. We investigate how the participants multimodally negotiate the “mainness” and “sideness” (Mondada, 2014) of situated food photography and describe some particular features of participants’ conduct in moments of mundane multiactivity.
Hintergrund: Die digitale Transformation prägt gesellschaftliche Systeme weltweit. Digital Health umfasst verschiedene Bereiche, wie z. B. die Verfügbarkeit und Auswertung von Daten, die Möglichkeit der Vernetzung innerhalb der eigenen Berufs- oder Betroffenengruppe und die Art, wie Patient*innen, Angehörige und Behandler*innen miteinander kommunizieren.
Ziel der Arbeit: Digital Health wird mit ihren Auswirkungen auf die Beziehung und die Kommunikation zwischen Patient*innen, Angehörigen und Behandler*innen beleuchtet. Veränderungen, die bereits erkennbar sind, werden beschrieben und Perspektiven aufgezeigt.
Methoden: Das Thema wird aus sozialphilosophischer, sprachwissenschaftlicher und ärztlicher Perspektive in folgenden Bereichen exploriert: digitale vs. analoge Kommunikation, Narration vs. Datensammeln, Internet und soziale Medien als Informationsquelle, Raum für Identitätsbildung und Veränderung der Interaktion von Patient*innen, Angehörigen und Behandler*innen.
Ergebnisse: Die Erweiterung der Interaktion zwischen Patient*innen und Ärzt*innen auf digitale und Präsenzformate sowie die asynchrone und synchrone Kommunikation erhöhen die Komplexität, aber auch die Flexibilität. Die Fokussierung auf „objektive“ Daten kann den Blick auf die Person mit ihrer individuellen Biografie beeinträchtigen, während digitale Räume die Möglichkeiten zur Identitätsbildung aufseiten der Patient*innen und für die Interaktion deutlich erweitern.
Diskussion: Bereits jetzt zeigen sich Vorteile der Digitalisierung (z. B. besseres Selbstmanagement) und Nachteile (Fokussierung auf Daten statt auf die Person). Für den kinder- und jugendärztlichen Bereich bestehen die Notwendigkeiten, professionelle kommunikative Kompetenzen und professionelle Gesundheitskompetenz zu erweitern sowie die Organisation seiner Versorgungseinrichtungen weiterzuentwickeln.
Widerstand als psychoanalytisches Konzept beschreibt die Ambivalenz von Psychotherapiepatient*innen gegenüber dem therapeutischen Veränderungsprozess. Während der*die Patient*in sich mit dem Wunsch, bestimmte Veränderungen zu erzielen, auf die Therapie einlässt, stellen sich diesem Wunsch unbewusste Kräfte entgegen, die versuchen, den Status quo aufrechtzuerhalten. Hintergrund ist die Annahme, dass Widerstand eine Schutzfunktion darstellt, um schmerzhafte Affekte abzuwehren, die integraler Bestandteil eines psychotherapeutischen Prozesses sind. Therapeut*innen sehen sich vor der Aufgabe, Widerstandsphänomene als solche zu erkennen, deren Funktion zu verstehen und einen gemeinsamen Verstehensprozess mit dem*der Patient*in zu ermöglichen. Eine gesprächsanalytische Untersuchung von Widerstand und dessen kommunikativer Bearbeitung bietet eine wertvolle Ergänzung zur psychotherapeutischen Betrachtungsweise. Ein bislang in der Literatur wenig beachtetes Widerstandsphänomen ist Verbosität, womit gemeinhin ausufernde, unfokussierte Erzählungen gemeint sind. Aufbauend auf der bisher einzigen gesprächsanalytischen Untersuchung zu Verbosität als Widerstandsphänomen von Fenner, Spranz-Fogasy und Montan (2022) ist das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit, herauszuarbeiten, wie Widerstandsmanagement bei Verbosität verwendet wird. Dafür werden zwei Fallbeispiele gesprächsanalytisch untersucht. Diese stammen aus einem Korpus 34 videographierter ambulanter psychodynamischer Therapiesitzungen. Anhand des ersten Fallbeispiels wird deutlich, dass Verbosität als Widerstandsphänomen nicht nur patient*innenseitig geäußert wird, sondern gemeinsam mit dem*der Therapeut*in interaktiv hergestellt und forciert werden kann. Das zweite Beispiel zeigt, wie Widerstandsmanagement zu einer Auflösung des Widerstands führen kann. Die Analysen verdeutlichen zum einen auch, dass der psychoanalytische Widerstandsbegriff aus gesprächsanalytischer Sicht kritisch zu betrachten ist und zum anderen, dass beide Disziplinen nicht unbedingt zu den gleichen Ergebnissen kommen.
In workplace settings, skilled participants cooperate on the basis of shared routines in smooth and often implicit ways. Our study shows how interactional histories provide the basis for routine coordination. We draw on theater rehearsals as a perspicuous setting for tracking interactional histories. In theater rehearsals, the process of building performing routines is in focus. Our study builds on collections of consecutive performances of the same instructional task coming from a corpus of video-recordings of 30 h of theater rehearsals of professional actors in German. Over time, instructions and their implementations are routinely coordinated by virtue of accumulated shared interactional experience: Instructions become shorter, the timing of responses becomes increasingly compacted and long negotiations are reduced to a two-part sequence of instruction and implementation. Overall, a routine of how to perform the scene emerges. Over interactional histories, patterns of projection of next actions emanating from instructions become reliable and can be used by respondents as sources for anticipating and performing relevant next actions. The study contributes to our understanding of how shared knowledge and routines accumulate over shared interactional experiences in publicly performed and reciprocally perceived ways and how this impinges on the efficiency of joint action.
Theater rehearsals are (usually) confronted with the problem of having to transform a written text into an audio-visual, situated and temporal performance. Our contribution focuses on the emergence and stabilization of a gestural form as a solution for embodying a certain aesthetic concept which is derived from the script. This process involves instructions and negotiations, making the process of stabilization publicly and thus intersubjectively accessible. As scenes are repeatedly rehearsed, rehearsals are perspicuous settings for tracking interactional histories. Based on videotaped professional theatre interactions in Germany, we focus on consecutive instances of rehearsing the same scene and trace the interactional history of a particular gesture. This gesture is used by the director to instruct the actors to play a particular aspect of a scene adopting a certain aesthetic concept. Stabilization requires the emergence of shared knowledge. We will show the practices by which shared knowledge is established over time during the rehearsal process and, in turn, how the accumulation of knowledge contributes to a change in the interactional practices themselves. Specifically, we show how a gesture emerges in the process of developing and embodying an aesthetic concept, and how this gesture eventually becomes a sign that refers to and evokes accumulated knowledge. At the same time, we show how this accumulated knowledge changes the instructional activities in the rehearsal process. Our study contributes to the overall understanding of knowledge accumulation in interaction in general and in theater rehearsals in particular. At the same time, it is devoted to the central importance of gestures in theater, which are both a means and a product of theatrical staging.
