| summary | Gestures, meaningful bodily actions, that speakers use while speaking provide multifaceted windows into language, cognition and communication. Most recent research has focused on the use of "iconic" ( e.g., depictions of action and motion) gestures and what they reveal about our thought processes or speaker's (embodied) cognition. I will provide experimental , crosslinguistic and cross cultural evidence showing that such cospeech gestures are in fact less likely to provide a “direct “ window into our thinking process since their production and perception are modulated by speakers' online linguistic formulation of a message and the communicative intent (i.e., addressee design, communicative eye gaze ). Implications of these findings about gesture production and perception models will be discussed. |
