Mechanisms for the Control of Intersubjectivity: Anchorage and the Control of the Other's Words

José Luis Barranco Pérez

Abstract

The analysis of a sequence of interaction in which two students from ELE of intermediate level conducted an activity of information gape suggests that the learners deployed two types of mechanisms for control of intersubjectivity: anchor and the control of the other's words. Through anchorage, the partners point out their perspective and clarify the other's perspective by clarification requests and confirmation checks. Through the control of the other's words, strengthen their understanding of the perspective of the other.
