An empirical study of acknowledgment structures
Résumé
The subject of our study is one type of "response" in dialogue, usually called acknowledgment or positive feedback. We show here how distinguishing between different acknowledgments is central to the establishment of information. The study is based on a french corpus of direction-giving dialogues which we have gathered. The factors that we investigate about the acknowledgments are their producer, their target and their scope. We focus on the relations between those features and linguistic discourse markers.
