Abstract
In this chapter, Rendle-Short demonstrates how conversation analysis advances our understanding of the interactional difficulties faced by children with diagnoses of Asperger’s syndrome (DSM-IV). The focus is on different contexts in which a child might pause or be silent and how such pauses are responded to. The first context is an intra-turn pause that occurs within a turn-at-talk that is introducing a new topic of conversation. The second context is an inter-turn pause or gap that occurs between turns-at-talk, following a question. The final context builds on the previous two sections by analysing a small video interaction of two children engaged in a spontaneous activity, with the pause occurring after the other child has fallen down because she has hurt herself. It highlights how conversation analysis can be used as a pedagogic tool for teachers, parents, and children. By teaching children the principles of the methodology, they become their own mini-analysts, enabling them to better understand their interactional contributions and how such contributions might be responded to.
