Title: Multimodal Language: Cognitive and Contextual Correlates of Gesture Use and Processing

Abstract:

Human language faculty is a multimodal and situated phenomenon, including the exchange of several multimodal communicative cues such as co-speech iconic hand gestures, which are spontaneous hand movements that co-occur with the relevant speech segments and represent object attributes, events, and actions. My general area of research is on how speakers and listeners coordinate speech and co-speech gestures during communication and thinking, with a focus on the possible internal (i.e., individual variation in cognitive resources) and external (i.e., contextual factors) sources of variation in these processes. In this talk, I will present two lines of research: (1) gesture production: the role of communicative proficiency (e.g., in people with speech impairments, elderly individuals, and non-native speakers) on gesture use during speaking, and (2) gesture processing: the role of visual-spatial abilities and the complementary distribution of semantic information across speech vs. gesture on listeners’ multimodal language comprehension. In my talk, I will discuss that speakers and listeners employ gestures to a varying extent and for multiple purposes, which interact with individuals’ cognitive dispositions and the communicative value of the gestures. I will conclude the talk by discussing my short- and long-term agenda for future research.
