- More about Self-Praise Across Cultures and Contexts
The book explores the extent to which self-praise is acceptable in offline and online contexts, across different genres, platforms, and cultural backgrounds, using quantitative and qualitative data analysis. It draws on traditional politeness theories, social psychology, interactional sociolinguistics, CMC, and discourse analysis, and is inspired by pragmatics but goes beyond to ground its studies within locally situated cultural contexts. It is intended for students and researchers in the field and contributes to the way communication is facilitated through different ways of deploying linguistic and interactional resources.

Self-praise is a topic that has been extensively studied in various contexts, including offline and online interactions, across different genres, platforms, and cultural backgrounds. This book aims to explore the extent to which self-praise is acceptable in these contexts and to offer a systematic and comprehensive inquiry into self-praise as social (inter)action. The data analyzed in this book encompass both naturally occurring (daily conversation and institutional talk) and elicited (experiments and interviews) types, and are explored at both quantitative and qualitative levels. Contributors to this book draw on traditional politeness theories, social psychology, interactional sociolinguistics, CMC, and (multimodal) discourse analysis to ground their studies within locally situated cultural contexts, which are often under-presented in the current academic world. Their efforts substantiate the fact that self-praise is worthy of intensive analytic attention and contribute to the way communication is facilitated through different ways of deploying linguistic and interactional resources. This book appeals to students and researchers in the field and contributes to the way communication is facilitated through different ways of deploying linguistic and interactional resources.
