研究对话中轮流说话的时机,发现关系比性别年龄更重要。
"Dyadosyncrasy", Idiosyncrasy and Demographic Factors in Turn-Taking
- 分析对话交接时间差异,发现个体和配对关系影响更大。
- 女性和年长者交接稍快,但影响很小。
- 两人互动中的默契远超个人或群体特征。
对话轮流遵循普遍规律,但存在显著差异。本研究基于美国英语对话大数据集(Fisher),分析过渡地板偏移(TFO)发现:性别与年龄有微小但显著影响——女性及年长者呈现较短偏移;教育程度无影响;轻话题关联更短的TFO。然而,个体差异影响更大,主要由强烈的个性特质(idiosyncrasy)与更强的配对特异性(dyadosyncrasy)驱动:同一对话对中的双方表现比在不同配对中更相似。表明互动关系与共同活动是决定TFO的最强因素,超越人口统计学影响。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Turn-taking in dialogue follows universal constraints but also varies significantly. This study examines how demographic (sex, age, education) and individual factors shape turn-taking using a large dataset of US English conversations (Fisher). We analyze Transition Floor Offset (TFO) and find notable interspeaker variation. Sex and age have small but significant effects female speakers and older individuals exhibit slightly shorter offsets - while education shows no effect. Lighter topics correlate with shorter TFOs. However, individual differences have a greater impact, driven by a strong idiosyncratic and an even stronger "dyadosyncratic" component - speakers in a dyad resemble each other more than they resemble themselves in different dyads. This suggests that the dyadic relationship and joint activity are the strongest determinants of TFO, outweighing demographic influences.
