演讲者做手势是为了让听众受益吗?这项研究探讨了说话者是否使用不同的手势时,这些手势有可能沟通,当他们不。受试者观看一部动画片,并分两部分向听众讲述动画片的故事:一部分是正常的面对面互动,另一部分是说话者和听众之间的可视性被屏幕挡住。会议被一个隐藏的摄像机录了下来。手势被识别并分为两类:代表性手势,这是描绘凭借手形,放置或运动与语音相关的语义内容的手势,和节拍手势,这是简单的,有节奏的手势,不传达语义内容。发言者产生的代表性的姿态在一个较高的利率在面对面的条件下,然而,他们继续产生一些代表性的姿态在屏幕条件下,当他们的听众看不到的手势。在这两种情况下,演讲者以可比的速率产生节拍手势。研究结果表明,手势服务的扬声器内部和交际功能。(C)北京:科学出版社.
Do speakers gesture to benefit their listeners? This study examined whether speakers use gestures differently when those gestures have the potential to communicate and when they do not. Participants watched an animated cartoon and narrated the cartoon story to a listener in two parts: one part in normal face-to-face interaction and one part with visibility between speaker and listener blocked by a screen. The session was videotaped with a hidden camera. Gestures were identified and classified into two categories: representational gestures, which are gestures that depict semantic content related to speech by virtue of handshape, placement, or motion, and beat gestures, which are simple, rhythmic gestures that do not convey semantic content. Speakers produced representational gestures at a higher rate in the face-to-face condition; however, they continued to produce some representational gestures in the screen condition, when their listeners could not see the gestures. Speakers produced beat gestures at comparable rates under both conditions. The findings suggest that gestures serve both speaker-internal and communicative functions. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
