Up: Oher, phatic focus.
Previous: Operational cycles and monitoring
Levelt:
- discusses intonation in the context of discourse repairs
and `editing expressions' (repair marking discourse particles) (pp. 495ff.)
- does not mention flat, stable, stylised pitch contours
Claim:
Low-level feedback mechanism at the Audition level
for auditory feedback is involved in stable stylised intonations,
chanting and singing.
This low-level monitoring is interpreted as a procedural `icon'
for phatic monitoring as
active focus in communicative space
