Abstract: A method for the interactional analysis of doctor/patient consultations is described and applied to six naturally occuring general practice interviews by three raters. the method is reliable given sufficient training and satisfies the stringent criteria for any method of analysis for medical interviews proposed by Wasserman and Inui [1: Wasserman R.C. and Inui R.S. Med. Care21, 279, 1983].
