ABSTRACT

This article focuses on the relationship between gaze and recipient feedback in triadic storytelling activities. Our starting point to investigate this relationship is an article by Bavelas et al. (2002), who report a statistically significant interaction between feedback and so-called gaze windows in dyadic storytelling activities. The pattern they found involves three interdependent phases: a narrator shifts gaze to a recipient to elicit feedback (phase 1), narrator and recipient are mutually gazing at each other while the recipient gives feedback (phase 2), and the narrator shifts gaze away from the recipient (phase 3). In our triadic data, where gaze was captured by mobile eye tracking glasses, gaze is equally used to elicit feedback. However, feedback is most often not produced during mutual gaze between narrators and recipients. The gaze window pattern is instantiated in only roughly one third of the feedback tokens in our corpus. We illustrate coexisting gaze patterns and discuss reasons why mutual gaze between narrator and feedback-giving recipient is less prevalent in our data.

摘要

本文重点关注三合会讲故事活动中的凝视与收件人反馈之间的关系。我们研究这种关系的起点是Bavelas等人的文章。（2002年），他报告说在二元故事活动中，反馈与所谓的凝视窗口之间存在统计学上的显着相互作用。他们发现的模式涉及三个相互依存的阶段：叙述者将视线转移到接收者以引起反馈（阶段1），叙述者和接收者互相凝视，而接收者提供反馈（阶段2），并且叙述者将视线转移远离接收者。收件人（阶段3）。在我们的三元组数据中，注视是通过移动眼动跟踪眼镜捕获的，注视被等同地用来引起反馈。但是，在叙述者和接收者之间相互凝视时，通常不会产生反馈。注视窗口模式仅在我们语料库中大约三分之一的反馈令牌中实例化。我们说明了共存的注视模式，并讨论了为什么叙述者和给予反馈的接收者之间的相互注视在我们的数据中不那么普遍的原因。
