a synchronous model of mental rhythm using Paralanguage for communication robots
Pacific Rim International Conference on Multi-Agents, 2009Co-Authors: Takanori Hayashi, Shohei Kato, Hidenori ItohAbstract:We aimed to achieve smooth human-robot communication by using a communication model based on synchronization between human and robot Paralanguages. We also described a robot's mental rhythm that controls its own Paralanguage and entrains its mental rhythm into a human Paralanguage rhythm for human-robot communication. We built three robots to evaluate our proposed model: the first used our communication model and the other two used extreme models that either completely imitated human Paralanguage or did not imitate it at all. We prepared several conversations between subjects and each of the three robots. The experimental results revealed that synchronized conversation using human and robot Paralanguages gave humans a positive impression of the robots. This paper also reports the results from analyzing the correlation between human and robot Paralanguages.

Textual Paralanguage and its implications for marketing communications
Journal of Consumer Psychology, 2017Co-Authors: Andrea Webb Luangrath, Joann Peck, Victor A. BargerAbstract:Both face-to-face communication and communication in online environments convey information beyond the actual verbal message. In a traditional face-to-face conversation, Paralanguage, or the ancillary meaning- and emotion-laden aspects of speech that are not actual verbal prose, gives contextual information that allows interactors to more appropriately understand the message being conveyed. In this paper, we conceptualize textual Paralanguage (TPL), which we define as written manifestations of nonverbal audible, tactile, and visual elements that supplement or replace written language and that can be expressed through words, symbols, images, punctuation, demarcations, or any combination of these elements. We develop a typology of textual Paralanguage using data from Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. We present a conceptual framework of antecedents and consequences of brands’ use of textual Paralanguage. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.

Nonverbal Communication across Disciplines: Volume 2: Paralanguage, kinesics, silence, personal and environmental interaction
2002Co-Authors: Fernando PoyatosAbstract:Paralanguage and kinesics define the tripartite nature of speech. Volume 2 builds on Poyatos’ book Paralanguage (1993) – reviewed by Mary Key as “the most amplified description of Paralanguage available today”. It covers our basic voice components; the many normal or abnormal voice types; the communicative uses of physiological and emotional reactions like laughter, crying, sighing, coughing, sneezing, etc.; and word-like utterances beyond the official dictionary. Kinesics is viewed from interactive, intercultural and cross-cultural, and literary perspectives, with much needed research principles for the realistic study of gestures, manners and postures in their intersystemic links. Applications are given in the social or clinical sciences, intercultural communication, literature, painting, theater and cinema, etc. Related to both Paralanguage and kinesics are the many eloquent sounds produced bodily, by manipulated objects and by the environment. A discussion of silence and stillness as opposed to sound and movement and related to darkness and light, shows their true interactive status, coding, functions, qualifiers, intersystemic co-structurations, positive and negative functions, and cross-cultural attitudes toward silence. The first two volumes are then brought together in a detailed model for studying our interactions with people and the environment, including certain emitting and transmitting congenital or traumatic limitations.1608 quotations from 133 authors and 216 works vividly illustrate all topics.

Paralanguage: A linguistic and interdisciplinary approach to interactive speech and sounds
1993Co-Authors: Fernando PoyatosAbstract:This is the first interdisciplinary book-length treatment of Paralanguage, briefly defined as: nonverbal vocal or narial communication. After sensitizing the reader to our sound-generating movements and to all human external and environmental sounds for their unquestionable communicative qualities, it realistically combines an anatomical-physiological auditory approach to voice production (identifying many neglected articulations) with the analysis of its visual manifestations as the triple reality of speech: language-Paralanguage-kinesics. The primary qualities of speech (loudness, pitch etc.) are extensively discussed, as are the many voice qualities. The longest chapter in the book deals with paralinguistic differentiators: laughter, crying, sighing, yawning, coughing, sneezing etc. Finally the author presents a model for analyzing paralinguistic alternants, word-like independent constructs (such as Pooh, Aah and Brrr). Throughout the discussion of these paralinguistic phenomena, extensive attention is given to cultural, social and psychological aspects. This first, ground-breaking interdisciplinary work on Paralanguage will serve as a source of data and a theoretical/methodological model for phoneticians, linguists, anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists, speech therapists etc.
