Linguistic Field(s): Phonetics; Pragmatics
Call Deadline: 15-Oct-2014
Meeting Description:
Prosodic constructions are recurring temporal
patterns of prosodic activity that express
specific meanings and functions. These
typically involve not only pitch contours but
also energy, rate, timing and articulation
properties, and may involve synchronized
contributions by two participants.
Call for Papers:
Call deadline: October 15, 2014
We invite empirical, methodological, and
theoretical contributions from any approach:
conversation analysis, experimental,
statistical, modeling, and others. We welcome,
for example: work detailing the form and
function of any specific prosodic construction;
cross-linguistic studies; multi-modal
investigations, work on the nature, utility,
and limitations of construction-based
approaches to dialog prosody; and work on how
the realizations of prosodic constructions
vary, for example, with other factors affecting
prosodic form, with temporal and cognitive
limitations that constrain speakers, with
individual speakers, and with multiple
simultaneous goals, whether coherent or
misaligned.
