Abstract:

Alignment in Communication is a novel direction in communication research,
which focuses on interactive adaptation processes assumed to be more or less
automatic in humans. It offers an alternative to established theories of human
communication and also has important implications for human-machine
interaction. A collection of articles by international researchers in
linguistics, psychology, artificial intelligence, and social robotics, this
book provides evidence on why such alignment occurs and the role it plays in
communication. Complemented by a discussion of methodologies and explanatory
frameworks from dialogue theory, it presents cornerstones of an emerging new
theory of communication. The ultimate purpose is to extend our knowledge about
human communication, as well as creating a foundation for natural multimodal
dialogue in human-machine interaction. Its cross-disciplinary nature makes the
book a useful reference for cognitive scientists, linguists, psychologists,
and language philosophers, as well as engineers developing conversational
agents and social robots.
