Abstract(in English) In the periodical conferences of an elderly group home, the caregivers often express their knowledge and experience with their speech and gesture. In this presentation, we focus on "extended gesture" (Hosoma 2009) to describe the interaction among caregivers in the conference. In an example, a caregiver X made a question (the First Pair Part of an adjacency pair) with her gesture, and the gesture was not retracted with the end of the utterance but was extended to the next turn of the other participants. When the others made the negative answers, X kept her gesture hold, and only after the participants made an alternative answer she changed her gesture to coincide the alternative answer. The sequential changes of gestures make the visual comparison of the knowledge available to the participants, and help to find a new way of the problem solving.
