  • The use of interlocking multi-unit turns in topic shifts

    Open Access•I Park, Rachel S Y Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Pragmatics Quarterly Publication…•2025

    This paper examines multi-unit turns that allow speakers to retrospectively close the prior sequence while prospectively launching a new sequence, which Schegloff (1986) referred to as interlocking organization. Using English telephone conversations as data, we focus on how multi-unit turns are used for topic shifts, and show that interlocking organization operates in conjunction with other phonetic and lexical features, such as increased pitch a…

  • Temporal relationships between speech and hand gestures in the vicinity of potential turn boundaries in German and Swedish conversation

    Open Access•Margaret Zellers, Jan Gorisch et al.•ARTICLE•Language and Cognition•2025•References: 62

    Both gesture and talk are basic building blocks of face-to-face conversation. In this study, we address the temporal dynamics of hand gesture phases relative to places and types of turn transition. We annotated gesture features and measured temporal aspects of gesture related to speech in two languages, German and Swedish. We found variation in the temporal relationships of gesture types and alignment of gesture phases that relate to the manageme…

  • Pitch Contour Matching and Interactional Alignment across Turns

    Open Access•Jan Gorisch, Bill Wells et al.•ARTICLE•Language and Speech•2012•Cited by: 9•References: 32

    In order to explore the influence of context on the phonetic design of talk-in-interaction, we investigated the pitch characteristics of short turns (insertions) that are produced by one speaker between turns from another speaker. We investigated the hypothesis that the speaker of the insertion designs her turn as a pitch match to the prior turn in order to align with the previous speaker’s agenda, whereas non-matching displays that the speaker o…
