Current research
My research is based on analysing telephone interactions between mothers and their young-adult daughters. The focus of my analysis is on the social organisation of advice within interaction, using the methods of Conversation Analysis and Discursive Psychology. I am also interested in how relationality is made relevant within the interactions for the recipients.
