Cognitive Models of Interaction
Cognitive models of interaction comprise ideas about the tacit knowledge or mental processing required to engage in social interaction. The knowledge and mental processing of interest is just what is required for two or more persons to alternately produce utterances and embodied actions that are interconnected with each other's, and thus are interactive. This does not include many of the diverse cognitions that persons also draw on when interacti…
Interactional Competence
The cultivation of “interactional competence” in L2 was added to the agenda of foreign language teaching in the mid‐1980s, over and above cultivating grammatical and lexical knowledge of L2 (“proficiency”). The addition of this agenda is supported by findings in language pragmatics and conversation analysis that interaction (the collaborative exchange of a succession of linked utterances) relies on a different competence from linguistic competenc…
The basic interactional competence of language learners
A tale of two intentions
Speaker intention is conceptualized as a property of utterances in context, not speakers; it is based on communally shared knowledge of discursive means to ends. The article’s main theoretical claim is that utterances, in addition to being produced with an intention about their pragmatic meaning, are also produced with an intention to bring about some post-interactional end result. Both types of intention bear on the utterance’s pragmatic meaning…
Conflict in the Jury Room
A number of studies have shown how participants work to accomplish their goals in ways that minimize the possibility of acrimonious conflict. And yet acrimonious conflict does occur. This raises the issue of what circumstances and discursive moves engender acrimonious interactions and what circumstances and discursive moves avert them. We address this issue through the analysis of segments of a jury deliberation in the penalty phase of a murder t…
The calculability of communicative intentions through pragmatic reasoning
We provide conceptual and empirical support for the core tenet in pragmatic theory that speakers make their communicative intention about the pragmatic meaning of their utterances recognizable to hearers. First, we attribute skepticism about this tenet to conceptualizing communicative intentions as private cognitive states that hearers cannot reliably discern. We show it is more parsimonious to conceptualize communicative intention as arising fro…
The duality of speaker meaning
The representation of self through the dialogic properties of talk and conduct
It is a basic dialogical principle that the meaning of what is said or done is based on its similarities and especially its differences with other things that might have been said or done as relevantly instead, just then, just there. This makes what was actually said or done meaningful as a “choice” for all practical purposes, whether the actor made it consciously or not. And any choice a person makes (or is deemed to make) is revealing about wha…
A Different Approach to Answering a Good Question
It is perhaps unsettling (or should be unsettling) to researchers of small-group interaction when someone issues a serious challenge to the claim that communication affects group outcomes, but Hewes (1986, 1996, 2009) should be commended for continuing to question it. He does not claim that communication has no influence on outcomes; rather, that there is simply not sufficient evidence to disprove the negative claim, or, conversely, to rebut the …
The Composition and Sequencing of Communicative Acts to Solve Social Problems
A close examination of peer interactions of children between the ages of 5;0 and 7;0 reveal occurrences where children composed and sequenced their communicative acts in intricate ways that were functional as solutions to a suddenly emergent social dilemma. Their acts and act sequences functioned to place constraints on what followed in the interaction, such that they opposed the other's unwanted actions by making the other's cessation of the unw…
Speakers' Footing in a Collaborative Writing Task
It is widely assumed in studies of conflict that either persons address and resolve disagreement by waging conflict or that persons avoid conflict and thereby fail to address disagreements. However, through our analysis of interactions of people engaged in a collaborative writing task, we found a number of instances where steps were taken to avoid waging conflict or to attenuate it when there was disagreement while still addressing the disagreeme…

Core Research Traditions Within Language and Social Interaction
Research undertaken by members of the Language and Social Interaction Division of the ICA addresses diverse topics, often topics of interest to scholars in other divisions as well. But it is not the topics that particular studies address that distinguish and coalesce work in language and social interaction (LSI); it is what these studies contribute directly or indirectly to helping us understand. Work within the core traditions of LSI research gi…

Find Your Partner and Do-Si-Do
Personal relationships have generally been studied from the perspective that the persons involved are psychological beings who are drawn together as they come to know, value, and share their respective inner qualities and experiences. However, it is also possible to examine relationships from the perspective that the persons involved are social beings who are drawn together as they each come to find the other's ways of participating in communal l…
Culture, Communication, and Preferences for Directness in Expression of Directives
Although much research and discussion about culture and communication focuses on the importance of cultural specifics, efforts to theorize in that area tend to begin from apparent universals, and then move to examination of cultural practices as diverse realizations of those universals. This article examines a particular case of cross-cultural theorizing, in regard to preferences for expression of directives. Speakers can opt to express directive…

Style, meaning, and message effects
The way in which messages are styled can amplify, dampen, or entirely cancel the public reactions of respondents to communicated information. Certain options of phrasing and syntax have this impact by constraining what can follow in the unfolding text or transaction with minimal risk of misinterpretation, and without undesired inductions about the character and traits of the respondent. Such stylistic options are a resource for strategic communic…

The question of a paradigm for the study of speech‐using behavior
Speech‐using behavior has not as yet received serious attention. Before it can be effectively studied, it is necessary to consider ways of discovering an appropriate paradigm within which speech‐using behavior can be explained
