ABSTRACT

This article examines how participants use noticings to attend to observable problems within situations of multiactivity. The noticings are emergent constructions that start with one participant’s initial, embodied orientation to some concrete feature or event in the immediate environment. The observed trouble is then explicated for others in a subsequent, multimodally constructed turn that temporarily suspends the progression of the current main activity. The linguistic formulation and timing of the noticings with respect to the currently ongoing action sequence show that, even though disjunctively inserted, they are not designed to be heard as interruptions. Rather, they are oriented to as legitimate actions that serve to manage the overall progressivity of participants’ multiple involvements in the examined situations. Data are in English and in Finnish with English translation.

摘要

本文研究参与者在多元活动情况下如何使用注意事项来解决可观察到的问题。注意是从一个参与者对当前环境中某个具体特征或事件的最初具体体现开始的紧急构造。然后，在随后的，多模式构造的转弯中将观察到的问题解释给其他人，从而暂时中止了当前主要活动的进行。关于当前正在进行的操作序列的注意事项的语言表述和时间安排表明，即使断断续续地插入，也不会将其设计为被打断。相反，它们以合法行为为导向，用于管理参与者在所检查情况中的多种参与的整体进度。
