This paper proposes a number of refinements to the original theory of Exchange Structure as first conceived. It first offers a summary of the early ideas and considers challenges made by others. The study responds to these challenges through new analysis of multiparty discourse. The paper discusses revisions to the model based on these challenges drawing on the iterative analysis conducted and considers other points relevant to multiparty discourse. The data is drawn from transcribed video recordings of small groups of 4 to 5 year-old children’s peer-led dialogic interactions as they engage in role-play. In addition to the development of Exchange Structure theory, this new analysis sheds light on the nature of negotiation within multiparty discourse and the dynamics of negotiation by young children in this playful context.

交换结构：通过研究 4 至 5 岁儿童的多方话语来改进模型

本文对最初设想的交换结构的原始理论提出了一些改进。它首先提供了早期想法的总结，并考虑了其他人提出的挑战。该研究通过对多方话语的新分析来应对这些挑战。本文讨论了基于这些挑战的模型修订，借鉴了进行的迭代分析，并考虑了与多方讨论相关的其他要点。数据取自 4 至 5 岁儿童小组进行角色扮演时同伴主导的对话互动的转录视频记录。除了交换结构理论的发展之外，这项新分析还阐明了多方话语中谈判的性质以及幼儿在这种游戏环境中谈判的动态。
