{ "pk": 6945, "title": "The Role of Lexical Cohesive Devices in Triggering Negotiations for Meaning", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "The authors compare the frequency of negotiations for meaning in a natural spoken corpus to a variety of cohesive devices. The study demonstrates that a lack of cohesive devices in non-native speaker (NNS) discourse correlates to negotiations for meaning. The data comes from a year-long longitudinal study of six beginning NNSs and comprised 99 transcripts. The transcripts were coded for negotiations for meaning. Regression analyses suggested that causal cohesion and semantic co-referentiality were significantly related to the frequency of negotiations for meaning. Additionally, NNS discourse demonstrates a significant decrease in frequency of negotiations for meaning as a function of time. Taken together, these results suggest that negotiations for meaning are related to a lack of cohesive devices in NNS speech.", "language": "en", "license": null, "keywords": [ { "word": "Applied Linguistics" } ], "section": "Articles", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/0n180736", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Scott", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Crossley", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Georgia State University", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Thomas", "middle_name": "Lee", "last_name": "Salsbury", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Washington State University", "department": "None" }, { "first_name": "Danielle", "middle_name": "S.", "last_name": "McNamara", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Memphis", "department": "None" } ], "date_submitted": "2010-12-14T08:00:00Z", "date_accepted": "2010-12-14T08:00:00Z", "date_published": "2010-04-29T08:00:00+01:00", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ial/article/6945/galley/4061/download/" }, { "label": "", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ial/article/6945/galley/4062/download/" } ] }
