This study focuses on how COI is resolved in Chinese civil court hearings via discourse information processing. Based on Discourse Information Theory, and the notions of Context Model Schema and Discourse Space, an analytical framework is constructed for the description, analysis and interpretation of the language used in Chinese court hearings. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eData analysis has revealed the following major findings: a) litigants in Chinese civil court hearings mainly resort to three information categories when making interest appeals: subjective, objective and explanatory information; b) the process of interest negotiation in court hearings is greatly influenced by such sociological, psychological and discursive factors as identities, intentions, information sharing status, discourse expectations, etc.; and c) different discourse management strategies are adopted to promote conciliation between litigants, among which information management, cognitive management and linguistic management are the most frequently used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yunfeng Ge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3034333137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783034333139\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/30\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d","brand":"Yunfeng Ge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48136974500095,"sku":"9783034333139","price":109.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_92e6fbd5-d54f-41a7-8ad6-bc3d39b44e0d.jpg?v=1770165703","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/resolution-of-conflict-of-interest-yunfeng-ge-9783034333139","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
