    <abstract>An understanding of natural language corrections is essential for artificial agents that are meant to collaborate and converse with humans. We present some preliminary experiments using language-to-action models investigating whether discourse structure, in particular Correction relations, improves the action prediction capabilities of language-to-action models for simple block world tasks. We focus on scenarios in which a model must correct a previous action, and present a corpus of synthetic dialogues to help explain model performance.</abstract>
