Annotation

This paper explores language socialization of affect in Mandarin parent-child natural interaction. It was found additionally that the conversational sequences' structure served as a discourse-level resource for the socialization of affect. The results were further discussed in the light of Clancy’s (1999) model of language socialization of affect.
