What is The Role of Gestures in Speech Retrieval about?
This document summarizes research on why people gesture when they speak. It finds that gestures: 1) Occur more during spontaneous speech than rehearsed speech, indicating they help with retrieving words from memory. 2) Usually precede the spoken words they relate to, supporting the idea that they facilitate word retrieval. 3) Vary in duration in relation to how long it takes to access the spoken word, further suggesting they aid retrieval.
