It demonstrates how abductive processes modify habits of belief and action in double consciousness, and how novel inferences from working memory become consciously integrated with existing long-term memory units. It also gives special attention to childrens prelinguistic means to represent propositional or assertory conflicts and to resolve these conflicts via listening and re-telling narrators accounts. The book serves both a theoretical and applied purpose, supporting innovative therapeutic interventions to facilitate the (re)construction of narratives by adults and children. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 191 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 21 September 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Springer International Publishing AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e This book offers a novel perspective on the communicability of narratives, shedding light on the cognitive foundations of Charles Sanders Peirce's pragmatic model. It highlights how abductive processes shape belief and action patterns in what Peirce terms \"double consciousness.\" Abductions generated during double consciousness paradigms exhibit enhanced efficacy compared to instinctual abductions. Novel inferences from working memory seamlessly integrate with existing long-term memory units, allowing for a more comprehensive assessment of proposition plausibility. Particular emphasis is placed on children's prelinguistic means of representing propositional or assertory conflicts and resolving them through listening and retelling narratives. Overall, this book serves both theoretical and applied purposes. It aims to support innovative therapeutic interventions to facilitate the (re)construction of narratives by adults and children. Its practical applications and theoretical grounding will appeal to graduate students and scholars alike, who seek to explore narrative as an interdisciplinary enterprise—an ontological and cultural phenomenon (narration through action\/image sequences) rather than solely a literary\/linguistic paradigm. Ultimately, this account presents narrative as a modal forum for resolving logical and practical conflicts, compelling the interpreter to become an active participant in the narrated event itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031150951\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Donna E.
