“…While these studies have explored the processes of children's socialization into commensality and food morality, only a few ethnographic studies have examined how eating practices and attitudes present in family meals socialize children into healthy habits (cf. Aronsson & Gottzén, 2011;Kaufman & Karpati, 2007;Laurier & Wiggins, 2011;Wiggins, 2004). Our study, by focusing on the availability, serving of, and talk about fruits and vegetables in family dinners, will further our understanding of how parental practices socialize children into fruit and vegetable consumption.…”

“…Mealtime has been shown to be an activity that exposes families' worldviews on food and eating, and as such it constitutes a primary locus where children learn food habits that may shape their attitudes and behaviors toward food (e.g. De Geer, 2004;Laurier & Wiggins, 2011;Ochs & Beck, 2013;Ochs, Pontecorvo, & Fasulo, 1996;Ochs & Shohet, 2006). While these studies have explored the processes of children's socialization into commensality and food morality, only a few ethnographic studies have examined how eating practices and attitudes present in family meals socialize children into healthy habits (cf.…”

Eating fruits and vegetables. An ethnographic study of American and French family dinners

The French eat more fruits and vegetables than Americans and have lower rates of childhood obesity. This ethnographic study compares various aspects of meal environment in sixteen households in LA, California and Paris, France, and offers insights on the relationship between local practices and preferences and children's consumption of fruits and vegetables. Our analysis of video-recorded naturalist data reveals that the consumption of fruits and vegetables is linked to the cultural organization of dinner--what, when and how food is served--and to local beliefs about children's eating practices. We also found that the French model for dinnertime prioritizes the eating of fruits and vegetables more than the American model does. We propose that local eating models should be taken into account in research on childhood obesity and in prevention programs.

“…Laurier & Wiggins 2011;Larson et al 2006, the table of corpora in Pan et al 1999: 207). Having meals together is a core practice in families used by parents to socialize their children into value systems about language related and food related behavior, as well as any other aspect of life which may come up as a topic (Schieffelin & Ochs 1986).…”

“…Hence, appetite, hunger, and satiety are not psychological states, but interactionally negotiated practices in families. For this reason, research on eating disorders and obesity should take such findings into account (Laurier & Wiggins 2011).…”

CLU-SAL publishes monographs and edited collections, culturally oriented grammars and dictionaries in the cross-and interdisciplinary domain of anthropological linguistics or linguistic anthropology. The series offers a forum for anthropological research based on knowledge of the native languages of the people being studied and that linguistic research and grammatical studies must be based on a deep understanding of the function of speech forms in the speech community under study. His research focuses on spoken English, with a particular attention to narrative as well as verbal humor, and is rooted in the wide field of pragmatics. His monographs include Conversational Joking: Humor in Everyday Talk and the popular Conversational Narrative, which has recently been reprinted in paperback edition.He co-edited a handbook on phraseology and volumes on the Foundations of Pragmatics and on Humor in Interaction, which has also seen a reprint in paperback. After many years as Special Issues Editor, he is now Co-Editor in Chief of the Journal of Pragmatics. He also serves on the Consultation Board of the International Pragmatics Association (IPrA) as well as on the editorial boards of a number of journals from the fields of pragmatics and humor studies (e.g. Text and Talk and Humor).In this millennium only, he has published more than 50 articles in peerreviewed journals and edited volumes reflecting his manifold interests in language in use, its forms and functions, including topics as diverse as conjunctions, interjections, pragmatic markers, tellability, swearing, remembering, listener practices, similes, scripted performances, laughter, conflict, and the construction of identities in talk. Uniting his two passions, language and cooking, he has worked on recipes as early as 1983. His recent addition to the field of culinary linguistics is on "Conversational recipe telling" (2011).The articles in this volume were written and assembled as a token of gratitude and affection for our teacher, mentor and colleague.1. We would like to thank the student helpers of English linguistics, above all Isabel Schul and Daniel Recktenwald, for their help, and also our colleagues at the English department of Saarland University and everybody else for not "spilling the beans." Aperitivo Overview of the volume Maximiliane FrobeniusSaarland UniversityThe present volume contains a collection of original research articles from multiple disciplines, revolving around the common theme of language and food and the manifestation of the two within their cultural framework. This section gives a brief overview of the general structure of the volume and of the individual contributions.Similar to the intricate task of composing a four course meal for invited guests, the assembling of an edited volume demands a sense of "what goes together. " The metaphor of the menu serves as the vehicle for the order of contributions: we start with an introduction to the whole field of research (Antipasti), move on to contributions in the form of original research ar...

The Functions of Parent-Child Argumentation

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Why do parent-child argumentative interactions matter? What is the reason for such an interest? This chapter provides the reasons that motivated the study of parent-child argumentation with the aim to understand the function of this type of interactions. Focusing on the activity of family mealtime, in the first part, the chapter draws attention to the distinctive features of parent-child conversations. A second section of the chapter is devoted to discussing whether and, eventually, when children have the competence to construct arguments and engage in argumentative discussions with the aim to convince their parents to change opinion. In the last part of the chapter, research questions and structure of the volume are presented. IntroductionTen years ago, in a volume concerning the role of argumentative practices in the educational sphere, Muller Mirza, Perret-Clermont, Tartas and Iannaccone (2009, p. 76) stressed that the argumentative attitudes learned in the family are to be considered "the matrix of all other Layout: Pop_A5Book ID: 477538_1_En
