| Sumario: | A study was conducted to compare thought patterns, perceptions of interaction, and conversation orientation of English-speaking Americans in dyadic interaction with partners who were either native or nonnative speakers of English. Findings are discussed in terms of differences between dyad types; characteristics of interactions between native speakers and nonnative speakers; and the association of cognitive processes with conversation orientation and their effects on individuals in native speaker-nonnative speaker interactions. Implications for future research are also considered. |
