A Study of Embodied-Cognitive Multimodal Interaction on Question-Answer Action
Drawing on Multimodal Interaction Theory and the theories from Embodied-Cognitive Lin-guistics,this paper constructs an analytical framework for embodied-cognitive multimodal ques-tion-answer interaction.Taking the question-answer actions retrieved from the program Chinese Bridge as cases,this paper then examines the features of their multimodal resources,interaction-al strategies,and embodied-cognitive mechanisms involved.It finds that both the host and con-testants utilize bountiful multimodal resources to collaboratively implement strategies such as turn-taking,turn-maintenance,conversation repair,as well as information interpretation.These strategies construct the question-answer interactive frame,facilitating semantic flow shift from a positive information frame to a negative one.Hence a relatively balanced information load is reached between the two parties.The multimodal question-answer interaction reflects an embod-ied-cognitive process by which the two parties,grounded in the real-world context and stage model,orchestrate multimodal sensory systems to construct and construe multimodal meanings of the outside world.
