The findings >were to the effect that naturally occurring instances took more turns >and were more elaborate than the role plays. I've misplaced my >reference, and would appreciate it if anyone can supply same. > I would like to thank C?sar F?lix-Brasdefer for identifying the article for me. >Eisenstein, Miriam, and Jean Bodman. 1986.
