Title: Swiss Methods Festival Guest Session: Longitudinal Studies in Conversation Analysis
Convenors:
Professor Thomas Eberle (University of St. Gallen)
Professor Esther González-Martínez (University of Fribourg & Haute école de santé Arc)
Abstract Details
Conversation analysis explores the interplay between the situated organization of talk-in-interaction and the production of social action. Since the 1960s, it has focused on the organization of generic conversational practices in many different situations and languages. This session is dedicated to the emerging field of longitudinal conversation analysis that documents change in conversational practices across time. It shows how detailed sequential analysis of longitudinal data of talk-in-interaction helps understanding change in social practices, and ultimately people's competence for social interaction, shedding new light to phenomena classically captured by such notions as 'socialization', 'routinization', or 'learning'.
