Popis: | After listening to an audio-recorded conversation between a man and a woman, student-judges rated the number of interruptions and relative amount of talk initiated by each speaker. Different versions of this scripted conversation, which was recorded by two teams of actors, varied: (1) the presence or absence of simultaneous speech, (2) the gender of the speaker initiating simultaneous speech, and (3) the affective context of the conversation. Both men and women judges significantly overestimated the talkativeness of a woman who interrupted a man in an otherwise cooperative conversation. The findings indicate that commonsense conceptions of interruption correspond to those of conversation analysts, and suggest that women's interruptions of men are perceived as particularly intrusive violations of conversational rights. |
