Reasoning in Multiparty Dialogue Involving Patients with Schizophrenia

• Interacting with others frequently involves making common-sense inferences linking context, background knowledge, and beliefs to utterances in the dialogue. As language users we are generally good at this kind of dialogical reasoning, and might not even be aware we are involved in it while we engage in a conversation. However, sometimes it is not obvious how a particular contribution should be interpreted in terms of the underpinning assumptions warranting an inference. In dialogue involving participants who demonstrate atypical linguistic behavior, such as patients with schizophrenia, the effects may be even more marked. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
