Effects of Physical Environment on Experiential Value and Willingness to Pay a Premium in Fine Dining: The Role of Biophilic Design
Background and objective: The physical environment of fine dining restaurants plays an important role in shaping consumer experience. This study examines how specific physical environment attributes—ambient conditions, spatial layout, and decoration—differentially influence consumers’ willingness to pay a premium through the mediating roles of extrinsic and intrinsic experiential value.Methods: An online survey was conducted with 230 consumers wh…
Responding with 'really' in Korean conversation
Korean imperatives at two different speech levels: Alternate ways of taking part in others’ actions and affairs
Korean imperatives are differentiated by speech levels or levels of honorification. Accordingly, most research on Korean imperatives examines them from the perspective of politeness and interpersonal relations. This study takes a different approach, focusing on two types of non-honorific imperative turn design: one with the intimate speech level imperative e/a and the other with the plain speech level imperative ela/ala . Close examination of the…
Creative multimodal and multilingual puns as and through joint actions in Korean media interviews
This study examines how participants in Korean media talk, specifically talk show interviews, interactively construct puns as and through joint actions. Going beyond puns as humorous wordplay, the study illustrates their interactional and pragmatic functions. A close examination of the sequential positions and interactional contexts of puns in 16 different interviews shows that they recurrently emerge when participants are placed, socially or int…

The practice of praising one’s own child in parent-to-parent talk
This study examines an underexplored area of self-praise: parents praising their own children. An examination of a corpus of Korean telephone conversational data reveals that the act of praising one’s own child is prevalent in parent-to-parent talk despite the social and interactional constraints on behavior that might be viewed as biased or bragging. In fact, such self-praise is not always treated as interactionally problematic and is often init…
The Complexity and Variability of Self-Deprecation in Korean Conversation
Drawing on a corpus of telephone conversational data, this study examines a collection of self-deprecations in Korean conversations. Detailed analyses of self-deprecations in larger fragments than minimal adjacency pair sequences illustrate the multifaceted nature of self-deprecation. Self-deprecation entails not only deprecatory assessments, but complaint or trouble talk about one’s shortcomings, reenactment of experiences or moments that suppor…
Reconstructing misinterpretation and misrepresentation through represented talk in Korean conversation
Drawing from a corpus of telephone and face-to-face Korean conversational data, this study investigates cases of represented talk (RT) that routinely occur in second position as a response to a prior turn that the speaker finds problematic and in need of repair. The speaker finds problems in the way the recipient interprets or represents certain events, situations, or the interlocutors themselves, and the speaker seeks to rectify these (mis)conce…
Stancetaking in the face of incongruity in Korean conversation
A distinct declarative question design in Korean conversation: An examination of turn-final ko questions
Initiating Repair With and Without Particles: Alternative Formats of Other-Initiation of Repair in Korean Conversation
This study examines Korean speakers' practice of initiating repair on the recipient's talk with and without a subject or object particle and shows that the addition (or deletion) of the particle plays an important role in implementing the action of repair initiation. Initiating repair with a particle ordinarily serves as a harbinger of disagreement, surprise, or disbelief, while initiating repair without a particle functions as an understanding c…
Reported Thought as a Stance-Taking Device in Korean Conversation
Analyses of 34 cases of direct reported thought found in ordinary Korean conversations illustrate a routine practice in the use of reported thought—reenacting a prior thought to demonstrate how the speaker's current stance originated. Often, such thoughts are not simply momentary, isolated thoughts in passing but are consequential thoughts that convey layers of the speaker's sense of values or viewpoints that matter in everyday life. Through reen…
The Mental Lexicon of Low-Proficiency Korean Heritage Learners
Previous studies have examined word association behaviors of native speakers and non-native speakers, pointing out differences in the organization of their mental lexicon. This study investigates a relatively underexplored area in word association studies—the word association of heritage learners. The study compares word association behaviors of low-proficiency Korean heritage learners to those of native Korean speakers and non-heritage learners.…

P1-439 Effect of regular exercise on the nitric oxide levels in saliva
Introduction Nitric oxide (NO) regulates blood flow and both muscle contraction and metabolism during exercise. The plasma levels of NO increase after exercise. However, studies that determined the association between the levels of salivary NO and regular exercise are also lacking. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship of the levels of salivary NO with physical activity among Korean elderly. Methods 176 subjects aged 48–84 years ol…
Negotiating epistemic rights to information in Korean conversation: An examination of the Korean evidential marker -tamye
This study uses conversation analysis to investigate how participants in Korean conversations negotiate their epistemic rights to information by deploying alternate evidential markers. The participants mutually monitor each other’s different or changing epistemic rights to the information and routinely shift their choice of evidential markers to - tamye (‘I hear, isn’t it true?’) to redistribute their epistemic rights. By manipulating the turn-ta…
Quantum Teleportation: Valuable Magic
Quantum teleportation is one of the most important manifestations of nonlocal nature. The basic theory and experiment are explained and reviewed for a qubit system and a continuous-variable system
Evidentiality in achieving entitlement, objectivity, and detachment in Korean conversation
Evidentiality has been extensively studied in linguistics for its function in coding the source of knowledge or for expressing the speaker’s attitude towards knowledge. However, few studies examine how evidential marking is sensitive and responsive to the unfolding talk and actions of the participants in social interaction. Analyzing audio and video data of naturally occurring conversations in Korean in a conversation analysis framework, this art…
