Rules for Abstract Submission

​

    IV EnACE has two modes of participation with presentation of papers (oral communication and joint data analysis) and the listener. 

     See below the rules for submission of works.

Modalities of participation with presentation of works 

Oral communication:

Each participant will have up to 20 minutes to present their oral communication and up to 10 minutes to discuss them with the other participants in the session. The works submitted for oral presentation will be distributed in thematic sessions for the presentation of works. Supported languages: Spanish, English, Portuguese. 

Guidelines for submitting abstracts:

(a) The abstract must be between 150 and 300 words;

(b) The structure of the abstract must present: title; the topic and/or problem (suitable for EnACE purposes); objective(s) of the work; theoretical orientation; methodological procedures; most relevant results and conclusions (if any); 3 to 4 keywords (in Portuguese and separated by a full stop).

(c) Languages accepted for abstracts: Spanish, English, Portuguese 

Joint data analysis session:

This type of session is a practice at some Conversation Analysis conferences. The joint data analysis sessions aim to provide those who already have data with a space for the analytical exercise and the articulation of sequential analysis, together with researchers from different institutions. Therefore, it is essential that the researcher does not take his/her analysis ready, but that he/she is available to listen to different possibilities of data appreciation.

​

Guidelines for proposal submission:

(a) Abstract: The researcher must present a text contextualizing the data of a maximum of 300 words. Abstract structure: origin of data to be analyzed; the scope of the project in which they were generated; scenario of the segments to be analyzed; and the activity(s) in which participants are engaged during the segment.

(b) Title of the abstract: it must inform, in a few words, the nature/context of the interaction/collection that is being submitted for joint analysis. E.g. “doctor-patient interaction in context X”, “telephone call terminations”, “questions and answers in context Y”, etc.

(c) Transcripts:  the Jefferson transcription system; the Mondada transcription system; GAT-2,  and may comprise one or more segments, provided that a maximum of 3 (three) pages of transcription with the following formatting are totaled:

- Font: Courier New, size 10;

- Page margins: top 2.5cm, bottom 2.5cm, left 3cm, right 3cm.

- Guidelines on the system, see some references:  Hepburn, Alexa & Bolden, Galina. (2017). Transcribing for Social Research. 10.4135/9781473920460. 

(d) The file with the transcripts must be saved in .pdf format, cannot contain any information about the proponent of the session, and must be sent through the registration system by the final submission date.

(e) Languages accepted: Spanish, English, Portuguese. 

Guidelines for conducting the joint data analysis session:

(a) Each proponent will have 02 hours to present their data and discuss them with the other participants in the session;

(b) The proponent must be prepared to present audio/video excerpts that occurred immediately before or immediately after the presented segment, if requested during the session;

(c) Printed copies of the transcripts of data proposed for joint analysis will be made available, as well as the necessary equipment, such as a computer, image projector and speakers, if the proponent chooses to show the recording of the transcribed segments to be analyzed (which it is strongly suggested that it be done, as it is a fundamental part of sessions for this purpose).

(d) Languages accepted for submission of proposals: Spanish, English, Portuguese
