Claiming Power in Doctor-Patient Talk (Oxford Studies in Sociolinguistics)
Nancy Ainsworth-Vaughn studied stories, topic control, "true" questions, and rhetorical questions in 101 medical encounters in US private-practice settings. Medical books Claiming Power in Doctor-Patient Talk . In exceptionally lucid and accessible style, Ainsworth-Vaughn explains how power was claimed by and co-constructed for both patients and doctors (previous studies have focused upon doctors' power). The discourse varied along a continuum from interview-like talk to conversational talk. Six chapters are organized around data and include extended examples of actual talk in detailed transcription; four of these data-oriented chapters focus upon dynamic, moment-to-moment use of speech activities in emerging discourse, such as doctors' and patients' stories that co-constructed selves, and a patient's sexual rhetorical questions. Two more chapters offer non-statistical quantitative data on the frequency of questioning and sudden topic changes in relation to gender, diagnosis, and other factors Medical books Claiming Power In Doctor-patient Talk (oxford Studies In Sociolinguistics), Nanc. payment | shipping rates | returns Claiming Power in Doctor-Patient Talk (Oxford Studies in Sociolinguistics) Product Category :Books ISBN :019509607X Title :Claiming Power in Doctor-Patient Talk (Oxford Studies in Sociolinguistics)EAN :9780195096071 Authors :Nancy Ainsworth-Vaughn Binding :Paperback Publisher :Oxford University Press, USA Publication Date :1998-06-25 Pages :224 Signed :False First Edition :False Dust Jacket :False List Price (MSRP) :60.00 Height :0.6000 inches Width :6.0000 in

Medical Book Claiming Power in Doctor-Patient Talk
In exceptionally lucid and accessible style, Ainsworth-Vaughn explains how power was claimed by and co-constructed for both patients and doctors (previous studies have focused upon doctors' power). The discourse varied along a continuum from interview-like talk to conversational talk. Six chapters are organized around data and include extended examples of actual talk in detailed transcription; four of these data-oriented chapters focus upon dynamic, moment-to-moment use of speech activities in emerging discourse, such as doctors' and patients' stories that co-constructed selves, and a patient's sexual rhetorical questions. Two more chapters offer non-statistical quantitative data on the frequency of questioning and sudden topic changes in relation to gender, diagnosis, and other factors. Contributing to discourse theory, Ainsworth-Vaughn significantly modifies previous definitions for topic transitions and rhetorical questions and discovers the role of storytelling in diagnosis. The final chapter provides implications for physicians and medical educators.
