Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce that our next LANSI Advanced Studies 
Virtual Workshop on analyzing emotion in interaction will be facilitated 
by Alexa Hepburn and Jonathan Potter from Rutgers University!**This 
/limited-space, hands-on/ virtual workshop is designed for participants 
with an existing background in conversation analysis.

Should you register for the workshop, you will receive an email 
confirming your successful registration or waitlist status. Given the 
limited space, we ask that you only sign up if you are certain of your 
participation and inform us ASAP if you are unable to attend after 
receiving the confirmation email. Note that the workshop will be 
recorded for internal use only.

Please see below for the abstract and speaker bios for the workshop as

Abstract:

Conversation analysts and discursive psychologists have studied emotion 
as it is displayed, invoked, or oriented to, in interaction. This sits 
in contrast to the more usual psychological approach, which is to see 
emotion is a largely private individual experience grounded in 
physiology. For example, conversation analysts have studied how:

      o prosodic contours can be used to displaydisappointment
        (Couper-Kuhlen, 2009) and upset (Hepburn, 2004);
      o descriptions and ascriptions of anger are part of activities
        such as blaming and justification (Edwards 1997);
      o surprise is occasioned by prior talk and provides a resource for
        maintaining the local moral order (Wilkinson and Kitzinger, 2006);
      o laughter is used to modulate action (Shaw, Hepburn & Potter, 2013);
      o emotion displays can be used to manage institutional tasks
        (Hepburn and Potter, 2007, Ruusuvuori, 2007).

The workshop will include a brief overview of the state of interactional 
work on emotion as well as some of the theoretical and analytic 
challenges it poses.

Our focus will be on analyzing how speakers describe and display 
emotions, the role that such descriptions and displays have in action 
formation, and the way emotion displays are receipted and managed. 
Sessions will comprise primarily small group activities, involving 
introduction to instructional content and data analysis procedures, 
working with data from mundane interaction, family mealtimes, medical 
and clinical encounters, and child protectionhelplines. Participants 
will also have an opportunity to refine their transcription skills by 
working with crying, anger, and pain cries.

The workshop will be suitable for those with some experience of 
conducting conversation analysis who seek to consolidate their existing 
skills.

*Speakers' Bios: *

Alexa Hepburn is a Research Professor in the School of Communication and 
Information at Rutgers University, and Honorary Professor in the School 
of Social Science and Humanities at Loughborough University. She has 
published widely regarding methodological, practical, theoretical, and 
meta-theoretical frameworks in the social sciences, and on the use and 
development of conversation analytic methods, particularly with regard 
to emotional expressions such as upset, anger, and laughter, parents’ 
strategies for managing children's behaviour, techniques for giving 
advice, and practitioners’ empathic responses in clinical encounters. A 
major focus is to develop new insights into profound issues related to 
emotion, socialization, and influence, and to develop innovative and 
effective applied research techniques for interaction research. This is 
reflected in her three books – An Introduction to Critical Social 
Psychology (2003), Discursive Research in Practice: New Approaches to 
Psychology and Interaction (2007, with Sally Wiggins), and, her latest 
co-authored book, Transcribing for Social Research (2017, with Galina 
Bolden). She has delivered over 40 invited seminars, plenaries, and 
keynotes, and over 30 specialist workshops on interaction analysis in 12 
different countries around the world. She is currently working on a 
range of projects focused on basic analytic issues in CA, family 
mealtimes, various clinical encounters, and various types of telephone 
interaction.

Jonathan Potter is Distinguished Professor and Dean of the School of 
Communication and Information at Rutgers University. He has worked on 
basic theoretical and methodological issues in social science for more 
than 40 years. He has engaged with, and developed, post-structuralism 
(in Social Texts and Context, with Margaret Wetherell and Peter 
Stringer, 1984), discourse analysis (in Discourse and Social 
Psychology with Margaret Wetherell, 1987), discursive approaches to 
racism (in Mapping the Language of Racism, with Margaret Wetherell, 
1992), discursive psychology (in Discursive Psychology, with Derek 
Edwards, 1992), and constructionism (systematically reworked in 
Representing Reality, 1996). He is currently interested in the way 
conversation analytic method can support a reconfiguration of basic 
psychological notions such as attitudes, social influence, and emotions, 
focusingon their role in human practices.
