Abstract

Within speech act analysis, the interest in turn organization after requests has mainly arisen out of a concern to find further confirmation of the belief conditions that underpin requests themselves. Other directions of interest emerge once one considers the various interactional matters that participants must resolve during the course of request sequences, and it is this interactional perspective that more directly informs the argu- ments to be developed in this paper. In the child-parent talk examined here, most (child) request sequences take more than two conversation turns to complete; this arises from the fact that children often make further appeals and inquiries subsequent to types of turn-down by the parent.
