Abstract

People spontaneously produce gestures when they speak. Gesture production and speech production are tightly linked processes. Speech-accompanying gesture is a cultural universal (Kita, 2009). Whenever there is speaking, there is gesture. Infants in the one-word stage already combine speech and gesture in a systematic way (Capirci, Iverson, Pizzuto, & Volterra, 1996; Iverson & Goldin-Meadow, 2005). Gesturing persists in situations where gestures are not communicatively useful, for example, when talking on the phone (J. Bavelas, Gerwing, Sutton, & Prevost, 2008; Cohen, 1977). Congenitally blind children spontaneously produce gestures (Iverson & Goldin-Meadow, 2001), indicating gesture is resilient against poverty of input.
