Telles Ribeiro Branca, « L’activité de cadrage dans le discours psychotique », Éditions de l’École des hautes études en sciences sociales, ID : 10.4000/books.editionsehess.10320
This paper analyses a psychiatric interview with a patient under an acute psychotic crisis. The patient’s statements, for the most part, don’t make sense. She rarely answers the doctor’s questions ; she shifts idiosyncratically from one topic to another ; at times, she starts singing and chanting. However, psychotic talk can be coherent and socially organized. The analysis shows that the patient consistently creates different frames of talk and assesses correctly her situation. Consequently, several consistent discourses emerge.
