Abstract:

The Discourse of Nurse-Patient Interactions: Contrasting the communicative
styles of U.S. and international nurses is the first book to quantitatively
examine a wide range of linguistic features in a corpus of interactions
between nurses and standardized patients. The main goal of this book is to
compare the discourse of U.S. (L1 English speaking) and international (L2
English speaking) nurses. The research design relies on a mixed method
approach, including both quantitative and qualitative discourse analysis of
lexico-grammatical, interactional, prosodic, fluency, and non-verbal features;
assessments of interactional effectiveness; and qualitative interviews with
nurses. The book offers a detailed description of the situational
characteristics of the interactions and compares the discourse of nurses and
patients in order to contextualize differences in the communicative styles of
the two nurse groups. The results provide new insight into the way that
sociocultural and linguistic aspects of nurse discourse contribute to the
delivery of patient-centered care.
