Emotion At Work Episode 40 - Emotion at Work in overlooked parts of conversation (AKA Non-lexical Vocalisations)
Feb 5, 2020
01:04:59
My guest for this podcast is Dr. Emily Hofstetter and we get into geeky (as is often the case with me) detail about linguistics, conservation analysis and what Emily calls 'non lexical vocialisations'. A more everyday term would be the non-word noises that feature in interaction. We talk about how her (and others) research can be really helpful for us to look at talk and conversation in the workplace.
