Sammanfattning	Multiple case-based conversation analysis applies the fine-grained sequential methods of Conversation Analysis (CA) across two or more distinct cases — settings, groups, or interactions — to identify both case-specific patterns and cross-case regularities in naturally occurring talk. By examining how participants organise turn-taking, repair, and action sequences in multiple contexts, the approach strengthens claims about interactional phenomena beyond what a single-case study can establish.	Discourse analysis is a qualitative research methodology that examines how language, communication, and power shape meaning, identity, and social reality. Developed across linguistics, sociology, and psychology (particularly by Norman Fairclough and Jonathan Potter), discourse analysis goes beyond content to analyze language use as a social practice that constitutes and reflects power relations, ideologies, and social structures.
