Collaboration, reinvented tools and specialist knowledge : Communication professionals’ experiences of global health crisis management
- 2024
-
Ingår i: Discourse & Communication. - : Sage Publications. - 1750-4813 .- 1750-4821.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Communication professionals have a paramount role in global crisis. What did they learn during the covid pandemic that could be used in future global crisis? The aim of this article is to identify and analyze strategy changes among communicators in municipalities and how their conceptions of communicated knowledge transformed during the pandemic. Retrospective interviews and textual material are analyzed with a framework of Mediated Discourse Analysis in combination with Legitimation Code Theory. The analysis shows that the work of the communicators was characterized by collaboration with other professional groups and the civil society, and that the complexity and important time aspects during this crisis gave birth to semi-new, reinvented, discursive tools in the shape of text genres. The communicators’ conceived relevant knowledge as concept-driven and developed the conception that conveyance of knowledge should be thoroughly planned in a way that takes complexity into account.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- From a discourse analytic framework, the article analyses health blogs and patient’s forum discussions in which parents to children with congenital heart defects recontextualize medical professional knowledge and share their own experiences. The study show how the two types of online media may serve as a means for parents to attain expert status in their own case by sharing lay knowledge expressed as an amalgamation of the two key perspectives – professional and experienced – as an indivisible unit. Monological discourses, such as narrating, in blogs and more direct and immediate responses in forum discussions are noted as examples of differences in how medical facts are explained and negotiated, how advice is provided and how patient expertise is created. The study also show how blogs and especially forum discussions are used to problematize the validity of actions and opinions of medical staff. The role of developing patient expertise in epistemic communities online may therefore come with a risk of spreading misrepresentation of medical cases.

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- För den som vill förändra normer i samhället är språket ett effektivt verktyg. Det är inte nödvändigtvis nya ord i sig som gör den stora skillnaden, utan de diskussioner som orden är en del av, där inövade tankar och mönster prövas mot andras sätt att tänka, skriver åtta språkforskare.

Från social kategorisering till diskriminering : Fyra studier av språk och diskriminering och ett modellförslag
- 2015
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Språkbruk ligger till grund för många av de föreställningar och tolkningar som vi dagligen gör av oss själva och andra. Kategoriseringar ingår därmed som byggstenar i de kunskapsdiskurser som styr hur vi agerar med och mot varandra, t.ex. när någon blir diskriminerad. Både social kategorisering och diskrimninering är tätt förknippade med vårt sökande efter identitet, åt oss själva eller andra, med tillhörande värderingar. Sambandet mellan social kategorisering och språkbruk är därmed på flera olika sätt nära sammankopplat och värt en nämrare granskning.Alla bidrag i den här antologin har ambitionen att närma sig en sådan granskning, och de syftar till att visa på vilket sätt språk är en oundgänglig faktor i den sociala analysen av diskriminering. De medverkande författarna har gjort sina undersökningar utifrån olika material, olika analysmetoder och delvis olika teorier.

Gränsöverskridande meningsskapande : Om relevansen hos begrepp som text och sakprosa för förståelsen av hälsokommunikation
- 2018
-
Ingår i: Sakprosa. - Oslo : Institutt for lingvistiske og nordiske studier, Universitetet i Oslo. - 1502-6000 .- 1891-5108. ; 10:1, s. 1-31

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- I artikeln problematiseras etablerade gränsdragningar och dikotomier inom text- och interaktionsforskning, med särskilt fokus på begreppet sakprosa. Kommunikationsprocesser om hjärtfel används för att visa på skärningspunkterna mellan medieringsformer, roller och kunskapsdomäner. Det empiriska materialet utgörs av konsultationssamtal mellan gravida och läkare, onlineforum på nätet och bloggar skrivna av föräldrar till barn med medfödda hjärtfel. De tre fallen jämförs med avseende på medieringsresurser, kunskapspositionering och framställningsformer. Resultaten visar att konsultationssamtalen är monologiska och textliknande medan skrift, särskilt i forumen, används på otraditionella och dialogiska sätt. I forum och bloggar bygger deltagare expertis utifrån personlig erfarenhet. I samtalen framstår läkarens framställningsformer som starkt styrande. Läkarna har dock inte alltid den största auktoriteten. Expertroller förhandlas i varje situation, och gränserna för fackkunskap är oskarp. Kunskap dock genomgående ett viktigt kapital, och olika typer av kunskap tillskrivs olika värde i de olika kontexterna. En utmaning för modern fackkommunikationsforskning är att bättre förstå dynamiken och nätverken som är involverade när saklig kunskap görs relevant i verkliga livssituationer.

A professional–cultural approach to discrimination – constructions of police discrimination in two European countries
- 2015
-
Ingår i: Journal of Multicultural Discourses. - : Routledge. - 1744-7143 .- 1747-6615. ; 10:3, s. 313-331
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- From a critical analytical framework, this article analyses survey responses conveying Swedish and German police officers' understanding of discriminatory behaviour in the workplace. The article relates discursive constructions of discrimination made in respondents' accounts of potential factors behind discrimination, and in positioning oneself. Taking into account previous studies on constructions of discrimination, this study develops and proposes some key strategies of explication of the cultural meanings assigned to forms of discrimination as well as justification of or resistance to discriminatory behaviour in professional contexts. Resistance to discrimination is displayed through (1) exposition of reasons behind discrimination, (2) display of a critical self-image and (3) strategic choice of mode of report. Differences to be found between Swedish and German respondents are attention to detail, to underlying factors in discrimination and to typical communicative practices regarding discriminatory behaviour. Sexism is acknowledged as a violation to a comparatively high degree, whereas racism is reported much less.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we examine how traditional views of normality are negotiated, indorsed and resisted when talking about children with heart defects. Having as a starting point an ethnographic project that aimed to study knowledge construction when being pregnant or having a child with a heart defect, we focus on argumentation put forward by clinicians and parents in order to understand the forms that normality takes in relation to children's health and illness and the way that it is constructed argumentatively and linguistically. More specifically, we draw data from recorded doctor-patient consultations, ethnographic interviews and entries from family blogs and forums and focus on those instances where normality is negotiated as a means of providing a medical consultation or of taking and motivating decisions about the child's health and everyday life. The analysis is conducted by identifying content and logical topics in the data and showing how constructions of normality and alternative conceptions are constructed in discourse. Discourses are additionally related to discursive, semiotic framing and the realization of norms. Our results highlight a duality that is being painted both in the clinicians and in the parents' discourse when negotiating the illness and the accompanying risks in the child's everyday life. Some of the traditional norms being re-constructed and re-negotiated in the data are those of stigmatization, diversity, responsibility and freedom of choice.

Förhandlares kommunikativa kompetens
- 2006
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The subject of this study is language use in negotiations and the communicative competence of professional negotiators. The aim of the study is to make explicit the communicative competence through analysis of language use in four areas: levels of action, topical structure, meta-communication, and coherence. Negotiation ability has been identified and studied within a theoretical framework of linguistic pragmatics, outlined by participant perspective orientated and functional pragmatics, and by a socio-pragmatic perspective on joint action. Linguistic data have been analysed as parts of an activity type, a concept concerned with the connection between language use and the overall activity of which language forms a part. The data consist of a role play, dealing with an interstate diplomatic issue of monetary compensation after an environmental incident. The role play was performed by five different groups, with a total of twenty participants: ten Swedish and ten Russian negotiators. Two of the role plays were performed by well-experienced negotiators, and three role plays by participants without such experience. Three main variables have been used for comparison: experience, participant nationality and the assigned position of the negotiation. The data have been analysed both with quantitative and qualitative methods. Results show that competence is generally indicated by the special ways professional negotiators use communicative projects, create phase structures, and organize topics in local turns-of-talk and globally in the talk. Competence is also indicated by meta-communication, which is used for constructing participant roles and authority, as well as global coherence, all of which contribute to a formal level of interactive style. The interplay of power is performed within a frame of good relations, which is maintained in interaction. Professional negotiators seem to be aware of the importance of creating a common ground in interaction. What aspects contribute to the construction of a common ground can be based on a general premise that awareness and experience combine to create the main rationale for a person to act in a correct way. The results entail a professional network practice over-arching linguistic and cultural systems, where general norms of the activity type of negotiation are combined with specific institutional norms. Negotiators’ national background has however not appeared significant.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Active listening in conversation is considered an important professional duty within nursing in general and in medical telephone advice service in particular. This can be accomplished in several ways, often by the use of minimal responses, such as in back channeling and short vocal feedback signals. The aim of this article is to explore the professional use of feedback signals in medical advice calls. Previous research has reported a variety of functions of feedback signals, both in professional contexts and in telephone calls, and such functions include continuers and empathic and channeling tokens. The results of my present study indicate that the feedback signals in telephone advice mainly belong to one of a number of information-oriented subtypes. Referential signals are the most frequent, but other commonly-used signals have regulatory, channeling, or phatic functions. Emotional- affective signals are also used, but to a less degree than in e.g. psychotherapy. The different functions can be distinguished and defined by prosodic features used in their production. Feedback signals usually appear at syntactic borders, except for empathic signals, which are uttered more freely. The signals seem to be part of a professional practice in which the nurse continuously and pedagogically adapts to the emergent situation and the caller. It is suggested that the form of feedback signals may be conventionalized to some degree, a finding that, however, needs to be further explored.

- I den här artikeln analyseras några miljödebatter i den svenska riksdagen under 90- och 00-talen, främst med avseende på hur deltagarna behandlar de ämnen som ingår i debatten. Utifrån ett antal dimensioner hos den moderna offentligheten analyseras diskussionens olika former. Politisk deliberation står i centrum för analysen, som fokuserar genredrag och genreväxlingar. Här diskuteras hur deliberationen påverkas av deltagarnas grad av sakkunskap i de frågor som debatteras och vilka behov det finns av expertbidrag. De senares roll för politisk deliberation och beslutsfattande fokuseras och jämförs med politikernas språkstrategiska val i en diskussion om konflikten mellan välunderbyggda beslut och politisk prestige.

Semiotic spaces in antidiscriminatory political discourse : Naming practices as indexes
- 2019

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article explores the semiotic spaces occupied by organizations working against discrimination in Sweden. Expressions of identity, norm critique, and political goals are studied in relation to word production and language policy and planning. The study departs from interviews with representatives from three organizations within the hbtqi, antiracist, and disability movements. Other resources connected to them have also been analyzed, such as glossaries. Theoretically, this study draws on Yuri Lotman's concept of semiospheres, allowing the analysis to weigh in the whole semiotic process, including meaning production, policy work, and concrete word production. This approach completes an analysis of indexical orders. The results show that (a) organizations are aware of the importance of linguistic choices, (b) when new concepts and words are spread to the public, tension can arise and sometimes objections, and (c) word meanings change when used in public discourse. (Language policy and planning, semiosphere, indexical order, hbtqi, antiracism, disability, discrimination).

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- From a discourse analytic framework, this article analyses an online forum in which users give each other support in relation to a medical problem. The article relates sequences of dialogue between active users in this health forum from the perspective of digital literacy, informational support giving and rapport building. Taking into account previous studies on communication via medical forums, support giving and identity construction, this study develops and proposes some key strategies of explication of how knowledge plays a key role and is assigned to establishing contact as well as adapting themselves to other users of the forum. The role of epistemic parts in the forums is displayed through (1) encouraging further interaction, (2) bonding, and (3) attracting eligible dialogue partners. Skilful users are shown to share knowledge with each other in an informal, yet specific and substantial way. Posters are authored in flexible ways through a balance between knowledge input and emotional support giving. Knowledge is thus framed by the effects of the entanglement of epistemic and affective stances - not only by information exchanges.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article takes an interest in words and expressions evolving as part of the fight against discrimination, derogatory attitudes and oppression. A point of departure is that linguistic changes relating to increased diversity sometimes become the object of public criticism, which in turn may produce challenges to writers and journalists, as well as to language-planning activities. The aim is to investigate new naming practices within a framework of political justice agendas of people facing discrimination, and to relate this type of language development to the work of languageplanning institutions. This study is mainly based on interviews with representatives of three Swedish organizations whose members are engaged in activism or education: the disability movement, the LGBTQ movement, and an antiracist organization. It is also based on text examples from Mediearkivet and Korp (Språkbanken) relating public discourse. Analytical results indicate that different ideological standpoints (such as tolerance policies or norm critique) generate different types of naming practices and word meanings that often exist in parallel. Suggested language-planning activities to enable viable recommendations could involve an update of ideological points of view and the identification of meaning variation regarding potentially useful expressions.

Strategic Linguistic Choices within the Swedish Disability Movement : Practical Reasoning, Agency, and Antiableist Challenges
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Rhetoric Society Quarterly. - : Routledge. - 0277-3945 .- 1930-322X.
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This essay examines how the Swedish disability movement creates policies involving naming practices as a means for self-presentation. The study takes its departure from two kinds of empirical data: websites of specific disability organizations and an interview with representatives of a national disability organization. Different angles of problems associated with terms for self-description are discussed mainly from a rhetorical-agency perspective. Through the analysis of data, I show how different political goals are connected to naming practices, resulting in ambivalence toward ongoing linguistic innovation processes, especially those with roots in norm criticism.

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article gives a presentation of the Swedish Language act and its application and reception by the public. Ten years have passed since its introduction, and for this reason a study was conducted by the Swedish Language council about what kind of issues were brought to governmental and local authorities by the public. By the collection of e-mail from the public presenting questions or comments in connection to the law this study could show two main topics. A little less than half of the e-mails were concerned about two of the national minority languages in Sweden, Finnish and Meänkieli, mostly from an educational perspective. Another main group of e-mails were concerned with the situation for sign language. The remaining minority languages and others issues related to the Language Act were hardly mentioned at all. Conclusions to be drawn are that strong lobbying groups do invoke legislation that can be associated with their aims, and that there may be other parts of the legislation that better cover the rights that the e-mailers wish to defend or that the Language act is still unknown as to its content.

The significance of activist language policies in public debate– a concern for language planning agencies?
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Journal of Language and Discrimination. - : Equinox Publishing. - 2397-2637 .- 2397-2645. ; 5:1, s. 28-47
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article discusses the relationship between official language planning and policies concerning language usage that are increasingly emerging in anti-discriminatory contexts. It is suggested that the social function of lexical meaning needs to be given more attention, i.e. the meaning that arises from a person’s choice of words, especially in public discourse and debate. For this reason, it is further suggested that public debates be analysed with metapragmatic concepts providing useful links between lexical indexes to (ideological) loyalties and social identity or attribution of social identity. The notion of a diverse meaning allocation is contextualised in the principles governing official language planning agencies in Sweden. It is concluded that the prevalence of, for example, plain language principles in official language planning may be balanced with a more complex policy, taking a larger span of potential lexical significance into consideration.

Boosting young citizens’ deontic status : Interactional allocation of rights-to-decide in participatory democracy meetings
- 2022
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis explores the social organization of rights-to-decide in participatory democracy meetings where adolescents are invited. In such meetings, young citizens are given the opportunity to influence decision-makers and participate in determining future political action. Specifically, this thesis focuses on how social inclusion in decision-making is accomplished in adolescent-politician interaction as well as youth-peer interaction. Employing a Conversation Analytic perspective, naturally occurring participatory democracy meetings are analyzed to explore how adolescents are offered possibilities to influence decisions. The data investigated consists of a popup democracy workshop and a yearlong participatory democracy project (approx. 81 h), where adolescents are invited to contribute to decision-making. Three papers comprise the current thesis and examine 1) how adolescents are encouraged to participate in decision-making, 2) how a youth participatory role is delimited, and 3) how jointness is accomplished in decision-making. These questions are approached with a social deontic framework where human powerplay is investigated through participants’ interactional negotiations of rights to determine action. The analysis reveals that the participating adults’ pep talks and instructions offer a narrow adolescent role of influence. Inclusion therefore ultimately becomes alignment to adults' conceptions of who the adolescents are and how they should contribute to decision-making. Furthermore, the analysis shows how adult community representatives elicit adolescents’ negative emotional experiences and transform these into deontic building blocks in the impending decision-making. Community representatives’ superior deontic rights permeate the initiatives of inclusion directed at adolescents. Regarding jointness, the analysis reveals that, in adolescent-politician interaction, jointness is not accomplished, rather asymmetries of power are re-established by participants. However, in adolescent peer interaction joint decision-making is accomplished through verbal, embodied and material resources. By studying interactional efforts of inclusion, this thesis tackles critical aspects of the practices that facilitate and constrain political participation. The thesis extends our understanding of youth inclusion in decision-making by illuminating complex challenges inherent in the practice of inviting adolescents to participatory democracy meetings. By tackling these issues, this thesis also contributes theoretically and analytically to central notions within social deontics and research on joint decision-making and points out crucial future directions for research on inclusion and political action.

Med språket som arbetsredskap : Sju studier av kommunikation i vården
- 2012. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Svensk forskning om språk i arbetslivet intresserar sig alltmer för vård och omsorg. Delvis hänger detta samman med en förändrad arbetssituation för de vårdanställda, som medfört ökande krav på kommunikation i arbetet. Personalen förväntas bland annat kunna dokumentera sina insatser, bemöta patienter på ett servicemässigt korrekt sätt och informera olika målgrupper om svåra eller känsliga ämnen. Texterna i denna volym handlar om fleraolika yrkesgrupper inom vården: om läkare, barnmorskor, sjuksköterskor verksamma vid sjukvårdsrådgivningen, undersköterskor och vårdbiträden i äldreomsorgen samt telefonoperatörer som tar emot färdtjänstbeställningar. Detta speglar hur vårdsektorn ser ut idag: många olika kompetenser behöver samverka och kommunicera, samtidigt som de språkliga utmaningar som möter de vård-anställda blir alltmer komplicerade och krävande. Patienten sätts också i ökande grad i centrum, vilket gör att kommunikation som arbetsredskap är något som behöver medvetandegöras.Bokens författare är verksamma som språkforskare och intresserade av olika aspekter av språk och kommunikation i vården. I sina bidrag analyserar de normer som styr hur språket används i samtal och texter, liksom hur språket bygger upp och fungerar i olika kontexter. Författarna intresserar sig också för hur språkvetenskapens analysområde gränsar till och överlappar andra vetenskaper, som vårdvetenskap och samhällsvetenskap. Här framtonar ett mångvetenskapligt fält där delvis nya metoder kan behöva utvecklas. Denna utveckling är ett genomgående tema för samtliga bidrag i den här boken.

Proceedings (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Språk och identitet var temat för ASLA:s symposium som hölls på Södertörns högskola under två dagar i maj 2014. Under symposiet kunde vi ta del av ett fyrtiotal bidrag av föreläsare som rapporterade från forskning inom ett stort antal områden. I flertalet bidrag låg fokus på språkets roll för identitetsskapande processer i arbetsliv, utbildning eller medier. Sammantaget visade bidragen att det språkvetenskapliga fältet erbjuder en rad olika metoder för att analysera språkets roll i konstruktionen och förhandlingen av identitet.I flera bidrag kopplas identitet till flerspråkighet och lärande, medan andra rör identitet och flerspråkighet i arbetslivet, till exempel de nya krav på litteracitet som förändrade organisationsformer för med sig.Tretton av symposiebidragen presenteras i den här volymen. De flesta undersökningarna är gjorda på svenskt språkområde, men till symposiet kom glädjande nog även föredragshållare från en rad andra länder.
