Abstract

This paper presents the results of a study on the users’ perception of information of the relevance of information sources used by them to elucidate about covid-19 in the Brazilian scenario during the pandemic of this disease. The data were collected with use of a questionnaire distributed by email, Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. The results demonstrated a predominant attribution of relevance to formal and institutional information sources, such as the World Health Organization (WHO), scientific papers, universities, the Anvisa – Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (the National Health Surveillance Agency), hospitals, and health centers. Among the sources considered less relevant were highlighted newspapers and/or magazines, the Brazilian Ministry of Health, and television channels. Social networks (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, WhatsApp, Twitter, etc.), friends and/or colleagues, Internet search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc.) and family members also stand out as less relevant sources of information.

Dossier Care-in-interaction: practices, knowledge, and reflexivity in health (v. 18, n. 2) Apr./Jun. 2024.

October 27, 2023

A concept inseparable from communication, interaction is a constitutive part of the communicative act. While broad and guided by different approaches, human communication interactional studies have the common analytical challenge of observing the joint construction of utterances and their actional values in the microecological environment in which they occur, which implies looking emically, that is, starting from within, and considering the reflective processes of the people participating in that human communication interaction (Rodrigues, 2021).

This dossier, whose title mobilizes the care-in-interaction concept, addresses health care from an interactionist perspective (Ostermann; Meneghel, 2012), with particular interest in research with a multimodal focus to articulate, in a finely detailed descriptive work, speech and body studies (Mondada, 2018).

The expression care-in-interaction is generated by a common matrix in Ethnomethodology and Conversation Analysis (EMCA) (Loder; Jung, 2008), an investigative current originating from North American sociology, derived from Harold Garfinkel’s Ethnomethodology, which has been embraced globally in multiple disciplinary fields (Watson; Gastaldo, 2015), and which has brought speech-and-the-body-in-interaction as an object of study in the last ten years.

Analyses are data driven and can mobilize and articulate other theoretical currents, which focus on multiple objects and events, namely, polyphony and Bakhtinian dialogism, the Austinian analysis of speech acts, the Goffmanian face work and politeness, contextualization prosodic cues, and justifications and the theory of argumentation in language.

From the perspective of ethnomethodological and conversation analysis, care-in-interaction studies open up a range of investigations into interactions in different environments using several resources. As Harvey Sacks points out in his classical study of telephone conversations recorded by a suicide prevention center in the United States of America and, therefore, mediated by a technological device for distance communication, research whose collected material does not include all multimodal resources available in face-to-face interactions bring about challenges that reinforce the great analytical potential of looking inward, considering the natural and artificial devices of mediation to the world.

Two initial questions instigated this dossier: a) How is interactivity being operated in different environments and settings, especially regarding health topics? b) In what ways can microanalytical approaches to studies on interactions contribute to understanding social processes?

We encourage contributions from authors from different social, human, and health sciences fields – with particular emphasis on communication studies, language, anthropology, social work, and sociology – for thematic sub-axes such as:

Epistemic asymmetries, situated cognition, intercomprehension, and emotions-in-interaction;
Microanalytical studies of conversational frameworks of social and health intervention;
Telepresence interactions, mediated by multimodal computers (microphone, speaker, webcam, and screen);
Interactional frameworks of joint research and self-confrontation practices in the training of health and social professionals;
Participation of citizens in devices for joint analysis of service and care practices (citizen science);
Atypical interactions in their interdisciplinary dimensions of social studies of disability.
