It builds on previous conversation analytic research on sequence organization and elaborates on notions such as adjacency pairs and retro-sequences. The study demonstrates that instructional interactions aimed at teaching and learning bodily and manual skills are organized in ways distinct from interactions where the focus of the activity can be achieved through talk alone. The actions of experts and novices are occasioned by and operate on ongoing, embodied, and visually accessible courses of action, constituting the performance of the task. Both instructors and novices analyse tasks and activities into component parts and orient towards the developing horizon of future steps. Instructions and the work of following them are responsive and indexical to the unfolding performance and to what needs to be done next. This results in sequence organizations that parallel but in significant respects differ from those found in talk-in-interaction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"100 ","pages":"Pages 11-24"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142756855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because it reports an event which was at the same time very politically loaded and unexpected, the journalistic account of this event helps to reveal and question the continuum between facts reporting and the expression of personal opinions, with all the nuances of clear and less clear sharing of subjective viewpoint in between. The paper shows that subjectivity is present under different guises, including attribution, evaluative statements and doxa. The paper then establishes the difference between the plurality of voices and the plurality of viewpoints – a key distinction in the production of information and in the journalistic habitus.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"100 ","pages":"Pages 1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142744316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main analytical approach used in this study was Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA). It is a branch of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) that pays special attention to the sociopolitical contexts, allowing the researcher to go beyond purely linguistic analyses and focus on (both micro and meso) sociological implications. Therefore, the study analyzed the discourses through the lenses of securitization and embedding the findings into a broader discussion about migration in Poland. The paper demonstrates that the coverage of the events by both stations was radically different: the state television largely reproduced the discourse of the then ruling party, whereas the liberal TVN focused on the delegitimization of the then government and the border guard, accusing them of violating international law.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"99 ","pages":"Pages 259-273"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142656566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates how Chinese job applicants and human resource (HR) staff respond to recruitment refusals both before and after interviews in online settings. Drawing on a dataset of 200 chat logs sourced from two prominent Chinese social media platforms, this research identifies three major categories of refusal response strategies, encompassing 13 distinct types. The findings reveal that both job applicants and HR staff tend to accept refusals, albeit in differing manners. Applicants employ more diverse and verbose responses compared to HR. The study highlights applicants' heightened rapport management awareness, while HR's responses suggest a focus on impression management on behalf of their companies. Furthermore, our analysis reveals that both parties utilize more strategies in post-interview refusal responses, reflecting stage-specific pragmatic awareness. This study highlights the complexities of interpersonal dynamics in recruitment communication and provides insights into how participants navigate refusal responses to manage rapport and impressions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"99 ","pages":"Pages 289-301"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142656788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focusing on political interviews in the Flemish current-affairs programme <em>Terzake</em>, the study applies this analytical framework to examine journalistic stance-taking in different contexts, based on the topic of the interview and the role of the interviewee. The findings indicate that while journalistic stance-taking is standard practice across contexts, specific differences emerge at finer linguistic levels (cf. grammatical question types). The topic of the interview is found to be a more important factor in the likelihood of interviewers expressing stance than the role of the interviewee. We link this to the different intents (i.e., exploration, systematisation, or explanation) that interviews can have, which influence the dynamics of the question-answer exchange and, hence, how active a role the interviewer might take within that exchange. Finally, the study emphasises the usefulness of combining a grammatical and a discursive analysis of interviewer questions, as the specific ‘design’ of questions (i.e., their grammatical form and function) can point to subtly different ways in which interviewers position themselves vis-à-vis interviewees that may be glossed over at the discursive level of linguistic analysis.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"99 ","pages":"Pages 212-228"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142593271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
