Investigating the sources and effects of the tutors’ action modifications, we suggest an interactional account of ‘motionese’. Using video-data from a semi-experimental study in which parents taught their 8 to 11 month old infants how to nest a set of differently sized cups, we found that the tutors’ action modifications (in particular: high arches) functioned as an orienting device to guide the infant’s visual attention (gaze). Action modification and the recipient’s gaze can be seen to have a reciprocal sequential relationship and to constitute a constant loop of mutual adjustments. Implications are discussed for developmental research and for robotic ‘Social Learning’. We argue that a robot system could use on-line feedback strategies (e.g. gaze) to pro-actively shape a tutor’s action presentation as it emerges.","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2020-06-24T13:01:17Z","keyword":["conversation analysis","interactional coordination","adult-child-interaction","feedback","gaze","quantification","social learning","motionese","tutoring"],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2023-02-01T16:10:52Z","type":"journal_article","publication":"Interaction Studies","publisher":"John Benjamins Publishing Company","author":[{"first_name":"Karola","last_name":"Pitsch","full_name":"Pitsch, Karola"},{"first_name":"Anna-Lisa","full_name":"Vollmer, Anna-Lisa","last_name":"Vollmer"},{"first_name":"Katharina","last_name":"Rohlfing","id":"50352","full_name":"Rohlfing, Katharina"},{"last_name":"Fritsch","full_name":"Fritsch, Jannik","first_name":"Jannik"},{"first_name":"Britta","last_name":"Wrede","full_name":"Wrede, Britta"}],"status":"public","intvolume":"        15","year":"2014","user_id":"14931","citation":{"short":"K.
