IV EnACE 4th Meeting Conversation Analysis in Brazil 2023:
Details:
Multimodality in Human Interaction
We are pleased to announce the fourth edition of the 4th Meeting Conversation Analysis in Brazil (IV EnACE) which will take place on March 22, 23, and 24, 2023, at the School of Philosophy, Languages and Human Sciences of the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP), in the city of Guarulhos, São Paulo, in partnership with “Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos” (Unisinos University).
EnACE aims to bring together researchers, research groups, and students who are dedicated to the description and analysis of talk-in-interaction and social interactions and who are affiliated with the theoretical perspective of Conversation Analysis or interactional linguistics empirically oriented to naturalistic interactions, such as studies of conversation analysis, multimodal conversation analysis, interactional linguistics and gestures in interaction (gesture studies).
The IV EnACE is organized by two research groups: the Interação, Cognição e Multimodalidade (InCoMul) from “Universidade Federal de São Paulo” (UNIFESP), coordinated by Prof. Dr. Fernanda Miranda da Cruz, and by the Fala-em-Interação (FEI) group, from the University of Vale do Rio dos Sinos (Unisinos), coordinated by Prof. Dr. Ana Cristina Ostermann.
The theme chosen for this fourth edition is “Multimodality in human interaction”. Human interactions have a primordial and fundamentally multimodal organization and, for the construction of these interactions, the participants mobilize resources of different semiotic natures, which encompass language in its various aspects (e.g., prosody, syntax, lexicon), embodied conducts (e.g., gestures, facial expressions, body movements in space) and the physical artifacts of the material world (e.g., objects, technologies, devices, tools).
EnACE, in its edition under the theme Multimodality of human interaction, would like to gather especially, although not exclusively, studies on human interaction and on talk-in-interaction that have been dedicated to exploring the coordination between body, gestures, material world, and language in the construction and organization of human interactions. In addition, it also it also aims at contemplating proposals proposals that share or problematize questions about technical and methodological issues on multimodal research (notation and representation of audiovisual corpora; multimodal transcription; the use of tools for viewing and annotating video, e.g., ELAN, EXMARaLDA, Anvil).
International Conferences of the IV EnACE
Continuing the work of expanding its network of dialogue with other countries, already started by the organizing committees of the previous editions, the fourth edition will bring three lecturers who are a reference in the international academic community of AC, namely, Lorenza Mondada (the University of Basel, Switzerland); Galina Bolden (The University of New Jersey, United States of America); Katherina Walper (Universidad Austral de Chile, Chile).
In addition to international speakers, we have extended our call for contribution of oral communications, whose accepted languages for submission are abstracts English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
Rules for Abstract Submission
EnACE has two modes of participation: the presentation of papers (oral communication and joint analysis of data) and the listening mode.
Find below the rules for the submission of the paper.
Modalities of participation in the presentation of papers
Oral communication:
Each participant will have up to 20 minutes to present their oral communication and, depending on the number of papers submitted, up to 10 minutes to discuss them with the other participants in the session. The papers submitted for oral presentation will be distributed in thematic sessions for the presentation of papers. Accepted languages: Spanish, English, Portuguese.
Guidelines for submitting abstracts:
(a) The abstract must be between 150 and 300 words;
(b) The structure of the abstract must present: the title; the topic and/or problem (suitable for EnACE purposes); objective(s) of the paper; theoretical orientation; methodological procedures; most relevant results and conclusions (if any); 3 to 4 keywords (in Portuguese and separated by a full stop).
(c) Languages accepted for abstracts: Spanish, English, Portuguese
Joint data analysis session:
This type of session is a practice at some Conversation Analysis conferences. The joint data analysis sessions aim to provide those who already have data with an environment for the analytical exercise. The participants look over a recording and share their analytic insights with researchers from different institutions. Therefore, it is essential that the researcher does not take his/her analysis finished, but that he/she is available to listen to different possibilities of data appreciation.
Guidelines for proposal submission:
(a) Abstract: The proponent must present a text contextualizing the data of a maximum of 300 words. Abstract structure: the origin of data; the scope of the project in which they were generated; the scenario of the segments; and the activity(s) in which participants are engaged during the segment.
(b) Title of the abstract: it must inform, in a few words, the context of the interaction/collection that is being submitted for joint analysis. E.g. “doctor-patient interaction in context X”, “telephone call terminations”, “questions and answers in context Y”, etc.
(c) Transcripts: they must be presented in the Jefferson transcription system (cf. Loder, 2008) and may comprise one or more segments, provided that a maximum of 3 (three) pages of transcription are totaled with the following formatting:
- Font: Courier New, size 10;
- Page margins: top 2.5cm, bottom 2.5cm, left 3cm, right 3cm.
- Guidelines on the system, see some references: 1. Jefferson de transcrição: LODER, L. L. O modelo Jefferson de transcrição: convenções e debates. In: LODER, L.; JUNG, N. (Org.). Fala-em-interação social: Introdução à análise da conversa etnometodológica. Porto Alegre: Mercado de Letras, 2008. p. 127-162. 2. Hepburn, Alexa & Bolden, Galina. (2017). Transcribing for Social Research. 10.4135/9781473920460.
(d) The file with the transcripts must be saved in .pdf format, cannot contain any information about the proponent of the session, and must be sent through the registration system by the final submission date.
(e) Accepted languages: Spanish, English, Portuguese.
Guidelines for conducting the joint data analysis session:
(a) Each proponent will have one hour to present their data and discuss them with the other participants in the session.
(b) The proponent must be prepared to present audio/video excerpts that occurred immediately before or immediately after the presented segment if requested during the session.
(c) Printed copies of the transcripts of data proposed for joint analysis will be made available, as well as the necessary equipment, such as a computer, image projector, and speakers, if the proponent chooses to show the recording of the transcribed segments to be analyzed (which it is strongly suggested that it be done, as it is a fundamental part of sessions for this purpose).
(d) Languages accepted for submission of proposals: Spanish, English, Portuguese
