Description and Table of Contents
Description
Discourse analysis does not attempt to reveal psychological universals but rather is concerned with the social context in which subjects' responses are generated. Instead of studying the mind as if it were outside language, psychologists using discourse analysis study the spoken and written texts where images of the mind are reproduced and transformed. "Discourse Analytic Research" is designed to meet the growing need among undergraduate and postgraduate psychology students for clear illustrations of discourse analytic work and to provide an empirically demonstrable critique of traditional psychological approaches. In illustrating the variety of methods available through their studies of punk identity, sexual jealousy, images of nature, political talk, sexism in radio, education case conferences and occupational choice, the contributors provide a fascinating and challenging presentation of discourse analysis for all psychologists.
