        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 300 words 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) a short piece of data
        to support the main argument; (5) implication(s) of the
        findings. Please also include a 50-word summary. 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 or 20-minute slot with an
        additional 10 or 5 minutes for discussion.</span></p>
