Exercise 3: Doctor-Patient Interaction <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

The transcript below is from an “out of hours” call to an on-call doctor from an anxious mother. Focusing on just the five question-answer sequences beginning at lines 39, 43, 45, 50, 56<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

1) Identify the grammatical form of each question (e,g., interrogative, declarative, etc.) and discuss its epistemic gradient.<\/p>\n

2) Is the question grammatically designed for a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ response?<\/p>\n

3) Does the caller’s response conform to the question’s topic and action agenda?<\/p>\n

4) Does the caller’s answer align with the grammatical preference of the question?<\/p>\n

5) Can you identify anything in the prior talk that might be a factor in the design of this question?<\/p>\n

Format: <\/strong>Analyze each question, numbering each answer 1-5. <\/strong>Address all the issues for each question before moving on to the next.<\/p>\n

Length: Your paper should be no more than 1000 words or about 3 double-space pages (not including transcript excerpts). Be as thorough as you can within this limit.<\/p>\n
