  • Problem Presentation in Accompanied Medical Consultations

    Zi Yang, Weihua Wu et al.•ARTICLE•Health Communication•2026

    Companions' participation in doctor-patient interaction increases the complexity of sequence organization. Based on a collection of audio/video-recordings of accompanied medical consultations in China's mainland, this study examines the difference in patients' and companions' manners of problem presentation. Adopting a conversation-analytical approach to naturally occurring interactions, we identify distinguishable practices between patients and …

  • Chinese patients’ unsolicited presentation of primary concerns

    Open Access•Zi Yang, Xueming Wang•ARTICLE•Pragmatics and Society•2025

    Through an observation of naturally-occurring medical openings in China, we show that problem solicitation is not necessarily a routine practice in medical consultations. There are four common conversational slots in a Chinese medical opening allowing an unsolicited problem presentation, featuring a common deep structure – a generic pre-sequence followed by the specific base sequence of problem presentation. Three logically connected factors dist…

  • Triadic Medical Closing

    Open Access•Zi Yang, Fei Cheng et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of Applied…•2025•References: 4

    The introduction of additional concerns (ACs) during the closing phase of medical consultations—known as the “closing syndrome”—can compromise communicative efficiency by prolonging the interaction. The involvement of companions may further exacerbate this issue. However, studies on companion participation have predominantly centered on phases like diagnosis and treatment, with the closing phase being underexplored. Drawing on conversation analys…

  • Patients’ Problem Presentation in China’s Primary Care

    Zi Yang, Xueming Wang•ARTICLE•Health Communication•2024

    Identifying patients' reasons for visiting is the central task at medical openings, the structure of which has been well studied in Western primary care, but much under-researched in China's mainland. Drawing on conversation analysis of 91 audio-recorded primary care consultations in China, this study explores interactional features of patients' problem presentation at medical openings in terms of sequential positions, forms, and contextual conti…

  • Primary-concern solicitation in Chinese medical encounters

    Zi Yang, Xueming Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Linguistics Review•2024

    Drawing on conversation analysis, this study examines primary-concern solicitation in Mandarin-speaking medical encounters in China. Based on the observation of naturally occurring solicitation sequences, we identify the major question formats and problem-solicitation patterns in China’s mainland. It is found that Chinese medical openings feature both the dominance of generic solicitation in primary-concern solicitation and the recurrence of phas…
