Participatory Conversation Analysis/Evidence
Method evidence record

Participatory Conversation Analysis

Participatory Conversation Analysis (PCA) extends classical Conversation Analysis by actively involving the people whose talk is being studied in the analytical process. Rather than treating analysis as the researcher's exclusive domain, PCA invites practitioners, community members, or research participants to co-review recordings or transcripts of their own interaction, contribute insider meanings, and collaboratively refine the interpretation of interactional patterns. The approach is widely used in education, healthcare communication, and professional learning contexts.
