Abstract

In Chap. 6, affective practice has been analysed in terms of e-patients’ emotional acts (PEAs) and doctors’ empathic acts (DEAs); the different ways to carry out these two types of affective discursive acts have also been examined. The present chapter will go further and examine how those acts are structured sequentially as affective interactions. This chapter contains three sections.
