Download or read book La corporalit du langage written by Robert Vion and published by Presses de L'Université de Provence. This book was released on 2012 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Le langage ne se ramène pas à des langues définies par une phonologie, une morphologie, un lexique et une grammaire. Quand un sujet parle c'est tout son corps qui s'exprime à travers des modalités comme son timbre de voix, ses intonations, une rythmicité dans le débit, une certaine posture, une gestualité des mains et du visage, la direction et l'intensité du regard, des attitudes particulières. La signification des énoncés s'exprime au travers d'actes d'énonciation caractérisés par cette multimodalité. Contrairement à une linguistique de type structural, la langue se trouve en quelque sorte incarnée, prise dans un corps qui communique. Cette corporalité n'est cependant pas appréhendée comme réductible au sujet individuel. Elle est en relation avec les manières culturelles de dire et de faire propres à chaque communauté ainsi qu'avec une approche interactionnelle selon laquelle le sujet s'adapte à ses interlocuteurs et aux situations dans lesquelles il communique."--P. [4] of cover.

Download or read book Right Hemisphere and Verbal Communication written by Yves Joanette and published by Springer. This book was released on 1989-11-22 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a critical review of the questions as well as the data pertaining to the contribution of the right "non-dominant" hemisphere to verbal communication. Three main sources of observation are reviewed: experiments with normal subjects, with split-brain subjects, and with brain-damaged subjects. The first three chapters present (1) a historical introduction, (2) a critical review of the advantages and limits of the different methodologies used, and (3) a discussion of the contribution of the aphasia literature. Then, each subsequent chapter addresses one particular component of the possible contribution of the right hemisphere to verbal communication: lexical-semantics, written language, prosody and pragmatics. This book is intended for professionals who would like to consult a critical contemporary review of the subject. It offers a unique synthesis of nearly all the behavioral literature on the topic coming from many different, but complementary, fields such as neuropsychology, linguistics, neurology and speech sciences; it also contains a helpful bibliography. The authors open many new doors to promising research avenues in terms of both theoretical and practical questions, and offer a rapidly accessible source of information and reference.
Download or read book The Apallic Syndrome written by G. Dalle Ore and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of the apallic syndrome is one which has long been familiar to me, although I have not personally studied it as deeply as I would have wished. I became acquainted with this syndrome long before the last war, when my neurosurgical colleague Hugh Cairns (1952), made his pioneer contribution under the term "akinetic mutism" . This was an ar resting title, but it was one which did not altogether satisfy some of his colleagues, includ ing myself. We found it difficult to suggest an alternative. That is one reason why I wel come the expression "apallic syndrome" . Forensic practice has forced me from time to time to consider rather more deeply this distressing syndrome, and to try and marshal my ideas in a form which would satisfy my colleagues in the legal profession. More than once I have been instructed to make a medico legal assessment of these unfortunate patients. The points which have concerned my lawyer friends have not been matters of diagnosis, or of morbid anatomy, or of etiology. The fac tual problem which has been put before me was to make some approximate assessment as to the expectation of life. Vague guess-work is unacceptable in such circumstances. What the lawyers require is a precise and dogmatic answer.
Download or read book Social Signal Processing written by Judee K. Burgoon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Signal Processing is the first book to cover all aspects of the modeling, automated detection, analysis, and synthesis of nonverbal behavior in human-human and human-machine interactions. Authoritative surveys address conceptual foundations, machine analysis and synthesis of social signal processing, and applications. Foundational topics include affect perception and interpersonal coordination in communication; later chapters cover technologies for automatic detection and understanding such as computational paralinguistics and facial expression analysis and for the generation of artificial social signals such as social robots and artificial agents. The final section covers a broad spectrum of applications based on social signal processing in healthcare, deception detection, and digital cities, including detection of developmental diseases and analysis of small groups. Each chapter offers a basic introduction to its topic, accessible to students and other newcomers, and then outlines challenges and future perspectives for the benefit of experienced researchers and practitioners in the field.

This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrairement aux idées reçues, la communication avec les patients atteints de la maladie d'Alzheimer est possible et essentielle. Cet ouvrage en expose les différents moyens. Ainsi ces troubles de la communication, leur évaluation et leur prise en charge thérapeutique sont au centre de ce livre. Les processus du vieillissement normal et du vieillissement pathologique sont analysés à travers l'hétérogénéité des manifestations symptomatiques, en particulier au niveau de la communication dans les maladies neurodégénératives, et à travers la perte progressive du statut d'individu communicant du malade et de ses conséquences sur son comportement. Un outil d'évaluation des troubles de la communication des malades Alzheimer, basé sur une approche pragmatique et écologique est proposé. Ce dernier tient compte de la complexité des troubles et des influences multifactorielles que subissent les patients. À partir de cette évaluation, la thérapie écosystémique des troubles de la communication est proposée. Conduite par un thérapeute, celle-ci implique la participation de l'entourage familial et professionnel. Cette 2e édition propose une actualisation de l'ensemble des données au regard des avancées scientifiques et thérapeutiques, à l'aide de grilles, échelles et recommandations. Le chapitre sur les thérapies du langage et la communication est particulièrement révisé en y intégrant notamment l'élargissement de la thérapie écosystémique au réseau social. Des compléments en ligne sont également proposés : sept vidéos produites par l'auteur et trois documents à télécharger. Ceux-ci présentent les moyens pour évaluer la communication ; la thérapie écosystémique ; la grille d'évaluation des capacités de communication (GECCO), qui est également téléchargeable et imprimable en ligne, via un lien présent dans l'ouvrage.- Les processus du vieillissement normal et du vieillissement pathologique analysés à travers l'hétérogénéité des manifestations symptomatiques : communication dans les maladies neurodégénératives, perte progressive du statut d'individu communicant, conséquences sur le comportement du malade. - Un outil d'évaluation des troubles de la communication des malades Alzheimer, basé sur une approche pragmatique et écologique. - La thérapie écosystémique des troubles de la communication conduite par un thérapeute avec la participation de l'entourage du malade.
