Achieving Informed Preferences
The American Society of Breast Surgeons urges surgeons to advocate for breast conservation and discourage contralateral prophylactic mastectomy (CPM) when consulting with early-stage breast cancer patients who are not at high risk for developing contralateral cancer. At the same time, surgeons are advised to respect the preferences and values of such early-stage patients, many of whom have been shown to exhibit a preference for CPM, choosing it o…
Pre-emptive Repair of Potential Misunderstandings
In social interaction, participants face a pervasive problem: recipients might not only misinterpret what speakers are saying and doing, but they might act on those misinterpretations. A practical challenge for speakers is thus how to prevent misunderstandings that may lead to inapposite conduct. In this study, we bring prior interactional research together with new data from a range of social settings, to focus on the pre-emptive repair of poten…

Conversation analysis
I've heard wonderful things about you'
This investigation was motivated by physician reports that patient compliments often raise 'red flags' for them, raising questions about whether compliments are being used in the service of achieving some kind of advantage. Our goal was to understand physician discomfort with patient compliments through analyses of audiotaped surgeon-patient encounters. Using conversation analysis, we demonstrate that both the placement and design of compliments …
Pre-emptive resistance
In medical clinic visits, patients do more than convey information about their symptoms and problems so doctors can diagnose and treat them. Patients may also show how they have made sense of their health problems and may press doctors to interpret their problems in certain ways. Using conversation analysis, we analyse a practice patients use early in the medical visit to show that relatively benign or commonplace interpretations of their symptom…
Beyond 'doctor and patient
Three decades of conversation analytic investigations of medical interaction have produced a rich collection of findings of sociological interest, from a diverse array of encounters. This paper briefly outlines the development of this field to provide a context for the special issue. The paper discusses how studies of doctor-patient interaction have revealed the ways in which participants organise the medical visit to accomplish tasks such as dia…
Patient "Demand" for Medical Interventions
Contemporary medical decision making has been characterized as a struggle be-tween patients who are reportedly making more demands for medical interventions such as diagnostic tests and prescription drugs and physicians who are encouraged to partner with patients and satisfy them while simultaneously keeping medical costs down. Understanding this dynamic requires attention to the interactional strategies whereby patients indicate what they desire…
Doing Attributions in Medical Interaction
This paper presents an analysis of the process of offering and responding to attributions in social interaction. Analyses of audio and video recordings of patients' visits to an outpatient general internal medicine clinic reveal the ways in which patients offer their own explanations for their health problems, and how doctors respond to these explanations. In these explanation-response sequences, patients and doctors collaboratively enact an asym…
On 'Labeling' in Actual Interaction
In order to deepen the understanding of labeling as a social activity, we propose that more attention be devoted to the actual activities of those involved in the process. Our research concerns professional-lay interaction in a clinic for developmental disabilities. Using videotapes of informing interviews involving clinicians and parents, we examine the delivery and receipt of diagnostic news. We show that clinicians proceed cautiously when pres…
