Despite the fundamental role that discursive, conversational, and argumentative
interactions play in daily life, psychological research has yet to establish a comprehensive framework for understanding these forms of communication. Current investigations into discourse, conversation, and argumentation are fragmented across distinct research communities, often siloed within separate disciplines, resulting in limited interdisciplinary dialogue. This third volume of the Research Topic, “Discourse, conversation and argumentation: theoretical perspectives and innovative empirical studies,” seeks to bridge this gap by offering an integrated platform for advancing theoretical and empirical inquiry into communicative processes from a psychological lens. In particular, this volume presents groundbreaking research that delves into the dynamics of these interactions across individual, group, and institutional contexts, while emphasizing recent methodological innovations in their study. By consolidating contributions from diverse international perspectives, this Research Topic fosters a rich exchange of ideas, offering a state-of-the-art synthesis of psychological research on communication. Contributors to this Research Topic bring fresh insights, grounded in
rigorous empirical work, that span the spectrum of discursive, conversational, and argumentative interaction. The range of perspectives presented here not only reflects the field’s vibrancy but also signals a promising convergence of approaches that transcend disciplinary boundaries. By assembling such a distinguished group of scholars, this volume arrives at a critical juncture, providing valuable guidance for those navigating the complexities of specialized research in this field. We are confident that the contributions within this volume will inspire and challenge a broad academic audience, driving the integration of psychological research on communicative interactions and promoting future interdisciplinary collaboration.
