Sequential, Linguistic and Multimodal Resources for Action Ascription

This lecture briefly outlines some of the main resources – both internal and external to the turn – that may contribute to the process of action ascription. It is suggested that action ascription involves the integration of ‘bottom-up’ resources within the turn (including grammar, lexicon, prosody, gaze and multi-modality) with ‘top-down’ resources external to the turn (sequence position, location of the sequence within a broader activity, institutional contexts, and personal statuses and the rights accruing to them). Work on the integration of these resources may also shed light on the apparent rapidity with which action ascription is achieved by comparison with the slower pace of turn projection. In the case of European and other ‘front-loaded languages’, it is possible that the integration of turn external characteristics may contribute towards this outcome.
