摘要

越来越多的智能手机语用学研究主要集中在有意传达的命题信息上。在他早期的网络语用学框架和关联理论(RT)的基础上,在本卷中,Yus将情感交流作为分析基于智能手机的、应用程序介导的话语的基本要素,开发了一个独特的模型,用于理解不同应用程序的界面和用户的个人属性如何影响智能手机通信。这本书共有13章。引言第1章说明了智能手机通信的普遍性,并概述了本书的主要目的:首先,描述智能手机上话语的生产、传播和解释所涉及的问题,并提供通过应用程序持续的各种互动的理论(网络)实用主义描述;第二,解释为什么人们觉得智能手机交流如此有趣,甚至更喜欢它而不是面对面的交流。智能手机上的许多信息都是输入的,缺乏足够的上下文信息,与面对面的互动相比,用户需要付出更大的努力才能实现预期的解释。Yus认为语境约束和非命题效应是理解这些网络话语的关键。第一部分为全文提供了理论基础。第二章介绍了RT、网络语用学和网络语用学的基本概念。虽然在面对面互动和智能手机交流中都存在推断性的空白填补活动,但对后者的研究应强调互联网“虚拟媒介中改变或模糊的互动”(第23页)。第3章提出,非命题信息,如用户在人类交流中的感受、情绪和影响,对于理解智能手机交流的吸引力至关重要。第4章描述了智能手机交互中的界面可用性,即“特定用户能够有效、高效地使用产品以实现特定目标的程度”

Book review: Smartphone Communication: Interactions in the App Ecosystem
The growing body of pragmatics research on smartphone communication has primarily focussed on intentionally-conveyed propositional information. Building on his earlier cyberpragmatics framework together with Relevance Theory (RT), in this volume Yus adds the communication of emotions as an essential element to analyse smartphonebased, app-mediated discourses, developing a unique model for understanding how the interfaces of different apps and users’ personal attributes influence smartphone communication. The book comprises 13 chapters. The introductory Chapter 1 illustrates the ubiquity of smartphone communication and outlines the main aims of the book: first, to describe the issues involved in production, communication and interpretation of discourse on smartphones, and to provide a theoretical, (cyber)pragmatic account of the kinds of interaction that are sustained through apps; and, second, to explain why people find smartphone communication so interesting and even prefer it to face-to-face interaction. Much information on smartphones, which is typed and devoid of adequate contextual information, requires greater effort from users to achieve the intended interpretation compared to face-to-face interaction. Yus argues that contextual constraints and non-propositional effects are key to the understanding of these cyber discourses. The first part provides the theoretical foundation for the whole book. Chapter 2 presents the basic ideas of RT, Internet pragmatics and cyberpragmatics. While inferential gap-filling activities occur in both face-to-face interaction and smartphone communication, studies on the latter should highlight the ‘altered or blurred interactions in virtual medium’ (p. 23) of the Internet. Chapter 3 proposes that non-propositional information such as users’ feelings, emotions and affects in human communication are essential to understanding the appeal of smartphone communication. Chapter 4 delineates the interface usability in smartphone interaction, namely ‘the extent to which a product can be used by specific users to achieve specific goal with effectiveness, efficiency, and 1131383 DAS0010.1177/09579265221131383Discourse & SocietyBook review book-review2023

期刊介绍: Discourse & Society is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal whose major aim is to publish outstanding research at the boundaries of discourse analysis and the social sciences. It focuses on explicit theory formation and analysis of the relationships between the structures of text, talk, language use, verbal interaction or communication, on the one hand, and societal, political or cultural micro- and macrostructures and cognitive social representations, on the other hand. That is, D&S studies society through discourse and discourse through an analysis of its socio-political and cultural functions or implications. Its contributions are based on advanced theory formation and methodologies of several disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.
