ABSTRACT

The article demonstrates two parallel yet interlinked accounts on quality: in conversation analysis (CA) and in interpersonal process recall (IPR). We illustrate our argument with data coming from couple therapy. CA was used to examine asymmetry in the therapist’s affiliation with the two spouses, whilst IPR offered means to explore the therapist’s subjective experience and cognitive processes related to these events. By comparing and contrasting two approaches, the quality-related concerns in each of them are discussed. Furthermore, the analysis shows that using these two methods in parallel, in investigating the same data, can enhance the overall quality of research.

摘要

这篇文章展示了关于质量的两个平行但相互关联的帐户：对话分析 (CA) 和人际交往过程回忆 (IPR)。我们用来自夫妻治疗的数据来说明我们的论点。CA 用于检查治疗师与两个配偶的从属关系的不对称性，而 IPR 提供了探索治疗师与这些事件相关的主观体验和认知过程的手段。通过比较和对比两种方法，讨论了每种方法中与质量相关的问题。此外，分析表明，在调查相同数据时并行使用这两种方法可以提高研究的整体质量。
