Criteria for the reconstruction and analysis of doctors’ argumentation in the context of chronic care

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contribution

Abstract

The study of medical argumentation typically draws on empirical data. This poses a challenge, as in medical practice, utterances that serve an argumentative purpose are intertwined with utterances that serve different dialogical – as well as clinical – goals. Comprehensive understanding of the communicative context is thus imperative. This contribution seeks to provide a blueprint for the analysis of medical argumentation in context. Doing so, chronic care consultation is used as a particular example of doctor-patient interaction.
