We are very pleased to welcome you to the Fifth Conference of the International Society of Gesture Studies, The communicative body in development, held here at Lund University, Sweden. We are especially honoured to host the conference that marks the tenth anniversary of the International Society for Gesture Studies (ISGS). The ISGS was founded in 2002 during the inaugural conference, Gesture: The Living Medium, held at the University of Texas at Austin in June 2002. Since their inception, the ISGS conferences have become the meeting place for scholars interested in the study of gestures and the link between gesture and sign language, regardless of their disciplines and theoretical inclinations. The purpose of the ISGS is to pro- mote and foster the growth of gesture studies as an academic field, to facilitate dialogue across disciplinary and institutional boundaries, and to integrate the study of gesture with investigations into a diverse range of topics and disciplines. The biennial conference series is key to this endeavour and its steady expansion testifies to the success of the enterprise. The theme for this conference is the communicative body in development. We are very excited to present the rich, multi-disciplinary pro- gramme that the theme has generated, covering a wide array of theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of gestures and signs. The plenary speakers reflect this broad spectrum of perspectives. We are very grateful that they have accepted our invitations. We have a few days ahead of wonderful opportunities to learn new things, to broaden our horizons, and of course, to strengthen our profes- sional networks. We wish to express our sincere thanks to the members of the Scientific Committee who helped us review 256 submitted abstracts, 170 of which were selected for oral presentations, and 29 for poster presentations. We are equally grateful to our sponsors: Crafoordska stiftels- en, the City of Lund, and John Benjamins Publishing Company. Last but not least, we thank the many volunteers – students, researchers, teachers – who have contributed to the practical realisation of this event. Finally, a few words about Lund. Lund is the second oldest city in present-day Sweden. Located in one of the most fertile regions in Scan- dinavia, it has been populated since the earliest times. Lund has a long history of both religious and secular scholarship as the seat of the Archbishops of Scandinavia from the 12th century onwards. Lund was part of Denmark until 1658 when it was ceded to Sweden after much warfare. Lund University was then founded in 1666 as part of the process of turning the region more Swedish. Whether or not that particular goal has successfully been achieved, Lund University is now the biggest university in Sweden. Today Lund is a vibrant town com- bining the medieval and the contemporary, scholarship and industry. We invite you to enjoy strolls in the pedestrian-only city centre and its many restaurants and cafés, all at walking distance from the university campus. We wish you all a happy and rewarding conference and hope that you enjoy your stay in Lund.

The first focuses on gesture as a predictor of developing language in typically- and atypically-developing toddlers. The second explores the use of gestures by parents when interacting with typically- vs. atypically-developing toddlers (“gestural motherese”) and asks whether parent gesture is modified in relation to the child’s developmental level. The third documents enhanced variability in early gesture use in infants at heightened biological risk for autism spectrum disorder and explores the consequences of this variability for the language- learning environment. Wendy Sandler University of Haifa Designated Gestures and the Emergence of Sign Language The relation between sign language and gesture is not clearly understood. Some take the view that sign languages are just like spoken languages, distinguished only trivially by the medium of production, while others hold that sign languages are derived directly from gesture, although different from co-speech gesture in crucial ways. The work presented here suggests that we are confronted with this puzzling dichotomy because we have often been looking in the wrong places in our quest to understand the relation between sign language and gesture. I begin by isolating gestures of different parts of the body that are designated to manifest grammatical structure in established sign languages. Turning to a very young sign language in a Bedouin village, I will show that the body begins as a nondesignated whole, with only the hands designated to create images. Across four age groups, we will see, not a magical

  • Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth Annual Conference of the Cognitive Science Society
    Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth Annual Conference of the Cognitive Science Society Kenneth Forbus, Dedre Gentner and Terry Regier Editors August 4-7, 2004 Chicago, Illinois USA FOREWORD These proceedings hold the talks, posters, tutorials, and symposia presented at the 26th annual meeting of the Cognitive Science Society. The conference took place in Chicago, Illinois, at the Westin River North Hotel, August 4-7, 2004. Each year, the CogSci conference chairs highlight a particular area of cognitive science – we chose to highlight higher-order cognition. This is reflected in our choice of Susan Goldin-Meadow and Doug Medin as our two plenary speakers, and Larry Barsalou and Art Markman for a debate on embodied cognition, as well as in the themes of the invited symposia: language and thought, qualitative reasoning, higher-order cognitive neuroscience, and large-scale representation systems. The rest of the program was determined by the submissions we received, and by the reviewers’ enthusiasm for them. In total, we received 370 submissions of 6-page papers, publication-based abstracts, and symposia. Of these, 115 were accepted for presentation as a talk or symposium, and 150 were accepted for poster presentation. We also received over 150 member abstract submissions, which by design were only lightly reviewed, and almost all of which were accepted. Chairing a CogSci conference is a lot of work! We couldn’t have done it without a lot of help from many people. We would especially like to thank the following: The Governing Board, for inviting us to chair the meeting. The Program Committee, for managing the review process.

Parladé 2007 iii The Reorganization of Communicative Behaviors around the Onset of the Vocabulary Spurt: A Dynamic Systems Approach Meaghan V. Parladé, M.S. University of Pittsburgh, 2007 This study investigated the reorganization of communicative behaviors during the window of time surrounding the vocabulary spurt by considering the relationship between language, gesture, and affect as the communicative system undergoes a period of instability. Eighteen typically developing infants were videotaped with a primary caregiver at home one month before, at, and one month after the onset of the vocabulary spurt. There were significant differences between the vocabulary spurt session and surrounding sessions in terms of the production and temporal patterning of expressive behaviors. Specifically, the coordination of communicative behaviors occurred less frequently; speech was particularly unlikely to appear in coordination with other behaviors; and the use of earlier well-practiced configurations (e.g., affect combined with meaningless vocalizations) increased specifically at the spurt session.

  • Open Letter to Nih Director Francis Collins
    OPEN LETTER TO NIH DIRECTOR FRANCIS COLLINS Francis Collins, MD, PhD Director National Institutes of Health Bethesda, MD 20892 Dear Dr. Collins: We are writing to request that NIH delay implementation of its policy that sweeps basic science into a clinical trials framework until adequate feedback about its impact is obtained from the affected scientific community. We wholeheartedly agree with NIH’s goals of increasing scientific transparency and rigor, but we ask that you consider alternative mechanisms to accomplish those goals that would have fewer adverse effects on basic research. The mission of National Institutes of Health is to fund a wide range of health-related research. Some of this research consists of clinical trials: testing the effects of interventions that could be developed into treatments for improving health. Clinical trials are the key method for establishing the efficacy, and safety, of potential new treatments. The NIH also funds, as part of its mandate, basic discovery science on health-related topics. Basic discovery science tests hypotheses about how human minds and bodies work. History shows that basic science is necessary: the discoveries made by the basic science of today provide the foundation for the clinical trials of tomorrow. New treatments can only be invented on the basis of new knowledge about how the mind and body work. The NIH’s interpretation of its definition of “clinical trials” is so broad that many experiments designed to test hypotheses about how the mind and body work will be inappropriately
