{"pk":33149,"title":"A Model of Conversation Processing Based on Micro Conversational Events","subtitle":null,"abstract":"I present a theory of discourse interpretation based on the hypothesis that the common ground of a conversation contains a record not only of complete speech acts, but, more in general, of each action of uttering a contribution to the conversation: single words, word fragments, and fillers. I call the action of uttering a \"minimar contribution a MICRO CONVERSATIONAL EVENT. This model can serve as the basis for accounts of reference resolution in spoken conversations, as well as the interaction between parsing, repair, and reference resolution.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"17","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4s03m707","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Massimo","middle_name":"","last_name":"Poesio","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of Edinburgh","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1995-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/33149/galley/24210/download/"}]}
