The Psycholinguistic and Pragmatic Nature of Perlocutionary Acts in Speech Communication

By applying the scope of the speech act theory to the phenomenon of perlocutionary act, we consider its psycholinguistic and pragmatic dimensions. Although locutionary and illocutionary acts have been commonly studied in linguistic research, perlocutionary effects are less specifically analyzed because they often involve contextual, cognitive, and emotional variables. It examines how speakers use perlocutionary force to affect listeners by targeting their beliefs, attitudes, and behavior, and how intention, interpretation, and contextual conditions are interrelated. Combining classical theories (Austin & Searle) and modern-day psycholinguistic theories of perlocutionary factors, we focus on the flexible, often unpredictable character of perlocutionary determinants in spoken language.
