Conversations between AIDS counsellors and their clients bring
delicate and potentially threatening issues into play. In this
study Anssi Perakyla applies the principles of conversation
analysis to his exploration of AIDS counselling, using data from
video-recorded counselling sessions in a London teaching hospital.
He meticulously analyses this data to show how various questioning
techniques, in this case arising from the Milan School Family
Systems theory, operate in these situations, and how counsellors
attempt through the design and placement of their questions to
achieve the cooperation of their clients, with varying success. His
conclusions provide a timely and illuminating insight into the
management of a sensitive topic through various techniques of
indirectness.
