Issue Date: | 2017 | Journal: | Language & Communication | Abstract: | We present the results of an empirical study that measured the contribution of a conspicuous eye-gaze (as a function of scleral de-pigmentation) of humans in conveying multimodal referentiality by combining visual and auditory cues in a naturalistic setting. We made participants interact in a cooperative task in which they had to convey referential meaning about co-presential entities. In one of the conditions, participants had no access to their interactants' eye-gaze. We interpret the results as supporting the idea that our eye morphology contributes to instantiating multimodal referentiality in cooperative tasks in peripersonal space. | URI: | https://accedacris.ulpgc.es/handle/10553/140500 | ISSN: | 1873-3395 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.langcom.2016.10.007 | Source: | Language & Communication, [ISSN 1873-3395], v. 54, p. 73-81, (2017). |
