Caroline Cohrssen; Amelia Church – Sage Research Methods Cases, 2017
Conversation Analysis uncovers features of talk-in-interaction during "real life" conversations. When these phenomena are repeatedly observed in the data, conclusions can be drawn regarding the function of the phenomena as elements of talk. In this project, we drew on a corpus of video-recordings collected in five different early…
