LANSI brings together scholars
and students working on naturally-occurring data within the
broad area of
language and social interaction. In keeping with the LANSI
spirit of diversity
and dialog, we welcome abstracts from colleagues working on a
variety of topics
using discourse analytic approaches that include but are not
limited to
conversation analysis, interactional sociolinguistics,
linguistic anthropology,
and critical discourse analysis. Abstracts should be no longer
than 250
words with a 50 word summary and should include descriptions
of the following
aspects of the study: (1) problem(s) being addressed; (2)
central
claim(s); (3) data source(s) and analytic approach(es); (4)
implication(s) of
the findings. Abstracts will be blind-reviewed on the basis of
clarity,
specificity, originality, and the inclusion of the required
components. Papers
will be presented within a 15-minute slot with an additional
ten minutes for
discussion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
