Family Practice, 06/26/09
Shaw SE et al. - This paper aims to illustrate what discourse analysis is and how it can contribute to our understanding of family practice. Firstly, the authors describe what ‘discourse analysis’ is, mapping the discourse analysis terrain by discussing four studies relevant to primary care to illustrate different methodological approaches and key concepts. The authors then address the practicalities of how to actually do discourse analysis, providing readers with a worked example using one particular approach. Thirdly, the authors touch on some common debates about discursive research. The authors conclude by advocating that researchers and practitioners take up the challenge of understanding, utilizing and extending the field of discourse studies within family practice.
