Abstract

The goal of this paper is to model the moves mediators and disputants make in mediation activity. What is of interest here is the generic modeling of the moves in the discussion so that the insights of the various theories of argumentation can be brought to bear. For this we turn to the Inference Anchoring Theory (IAT) approach. IAT, in particular, allows showing how sequences of utterances work together to form arguments in a dialogical context.
