EVALUATING MULTIMODAL DOCUMENTS

EMPIRICAL STUDIES ON THE UNDERSTANDING OF AUDIO-VISUAL TEXTS

multimodality • evaluation • reception • cognition

he symposium addresses how

multimodal analyses can be used for

and applied to the evaluation of

multimodal communication. It aims at

reviewing evaluation methods and

providing practical implications for the

design of accessible audio-visual texts.

While the use of multimodal resources

such as pictures, texts, sound and

moving images has become normal in

our communication, it is not self-evident

how these resources should effectively

be combined to guarantee the

envisioned understanding. Insights in

human processing principles and

empirical reception studies are needed

to evaluate multimodal design and to

inform the variety of theories and

methods in our broad multimodal

context.

The symposium concentrates on the

principles that underlie successful

communication by explicitly asking for

results from empirical reception studies

conducted with readers/users of

multimodal texts. We seek contributions

reporting empirical and corpus-based

studies of multimodal artefacts that

provide insights into how people

navigate an understand them.

Featured talks by Jana Holsanova, Lund

University, and James Pustejovsky,

Brandeis University, will provide

excellent starting points for our

discussions.

The symposium aims at gaining empirical and

theoretical insights into how readers and usersystematic empirical and corpus-based analyses and

that can provide practical implications for the design of

accessible audio-visual texts.
