en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 iul 2022
Face-to-face dialogue is our basic form of language use. It is, and always has been, the only form of language use that spans all cultures and societies. Face-to-Face Dialogue: Theory, Research, and Applications focuses on the unique combination of features that make face-to-face dialogue the fastest, most precise, and most skillful activity that ordinary individuals do together. Writing for an inter-disciplinary readership, Bavelas draws on her research program of over three decades to reveal the unique features of face-to-face dialogue. Unlike written or mediated forms, face-to-face dialogue uses both speech and co-speech gestures and also permits rapid-even simultaneous-exchanges. This book demonstrates the importance of focusing on interactions rather than individuals and on specific multi-modal acts rather than all nonverbal communication. Bavelas's mixed research methods begin inductively, leading to experiments with qualitative measures. Second-by-second microanalysis uncovers details of how a dialogue works. By focusing on communication as joint action, Face-to-Face Dialogue refocuses the conversation around the science of human communication, with realizable practical applications for researchers and professionals alike.

Recenzii

Janet Bavelas is a true expert on face-to-face dialogue, and in this book she gives us a master class on the topic. She takes us beyond speaking and listening into the 'space between'-into the dialogue itself. She takes us beyond transcriptions of talk into the microscopic timing and meaning of speech and gestures-both inside and outside the lab. She helps us appreciate what it really takes to understand people speaking face-to-face."-Herbert H. Clark, Albert Ray Lang Professor of Psychology, Emeritus, Stanford University
Since co-authoring the seminal Pragmatics of Human Communication in the 1960's, Professor Bavelas has been investigating how face-to-face dialogue observably works, moment by moment and utterance by utterance. n this book, she summarizes a career's worth of rigorous research on that topic, dispelling many longstanding myths about interpersonal communication along the way. The reader will be amazed at how efficiently and meaningfully the participants in a face-to-face conversation can collaborate to build and shape their mutual understandings. This book will be equally at home on the shelves of researchers and practitioners alike."-Peter De Jong, Ph.D., MSW, co-author with Insoo Kim Berg of Interviewing for Solutions, Professor of Sociology and Social Work Emeritus, and mental health therapist
The author summarizes decades of research, providing readers with a master class on the topic, both inside and outside the laboratory. She helps one appreciate what understanding people takes when speaking face-to-face. Though written by an academic psychologist, the book is appropriate for people in all disciplines, both researchers and practitioners.
