Two articles from our lab on discourse connectives (specifically “and”, “but” & “so”). Both papers form just part of Cecile Larralde’s dissertation that took place last November. The work shows, in detail, how such words, from the moment they appear, generate specific procedures among participants.

Cecile Larralde will be defending her thesis today at 13:30 in Paris. Its title is “Experimental investigations into the procedural meaning of discourse connectives.” She’s the first PhD product of the GRISP lab (within a lab), which started when I moved to Paris (the Université Paris Cité).
