Specifieke constructies/gedragingen:

Implicit discourse content (voices) and (absence of) meaning coconstruction

The Voice of Lifeworld (VoL) and the Voice of Medicine (VoM). A voice is пthe realization in speech of underlying normative ordersН (Mishler, 1984). The VoL is the contextual understanding of health issues. It is opposed to the Voice of Medicine (VoM), the technical, decontextualized scientific assumptions of medicine. Looking at the dynamic between the two in a medical consultation enables to see if and how meaning can be generated out of the communication.

Gereedschapsbeschrijving door de auteur:

This tool helps understand what happens to the Voice of Lifeworld when expressed. Is it ignored, blocked, rationalized, recognized, is it merged with the Voice of Medicine to build some new meanings. The description obtained can help researchers and probably educators and trainees. No specific training is required, but a good understanding of Habermas Lifeworld and System concepts (as interpreted by Mishler for example) is necessary.
