Abstract

Dialogue behavior and dialogue intention are the key focal points in dialogue discourse studies. The dialogue mechanism is analyzed here in terms of the psychological distance and dialogue behavior. A psychological distance prediction model was developed to study the corpus with differences identified by studying the dialogue behavior distribution. This study shows that psychological distance scores are higher for work and love topics, when the speakers have a close relationship and in question-answer dialogue. So the scores are lower for weather and traffic topics, alienated relationships, and statement dialogues. The psychological distance is then related to the response type distributions. A statistical analysis of the dialogue behavior confirms the feasibility of the psychological distance prediction modelfor the future studies of dialogue content.

Key words
