an argument analyzing clinical interactions

Clinical Interactions: Final Paper with Primary & Secondary Resources
Write an individual paper integrating relevant course materials and concepts, with evidence from your transcriptions (the transcriptions are in the file named “Clinical interactions transcription”), to build an argument analyzing clinical interactions  as simultaneously reinforcing the cultural world of biomedicine and impacting patient illness experience. The paper should be double spaced, and approximately 9-12 pages. There are three example papers in the attachment.

Additional information (*very important): This is the paper from a medical anthropology course and it is the last and the third assignment in Clinical Interactions Project. In order to finish this paper, it is necessary to understand the whole project and previous work of the project. In this case, I will provide all information related to the project. What is more, since relevant course materials and concepts should be used in the paper, I upload some course materials in the attachment. it is not necessary to read them all but please be sure to use some of them (especially for reading 6 and reading 8).

The following information is the overview of the whole Clinical Interactions Project:
The first half of the semester, you systematically built an understanding of the health care system as it currently is operating in the United States, by integrating a critical understanding of the readings and anthropological concepts with primary interview data  that you collected then analyzed in light of course readings, first by yourself and then with colleagues.  This series of assignments built your interview skills, analytical and writing skills, and your teamwork skills.
The second half of the semester, we are focusing on what some have called the heart of medicine:  clinical interactions.  To do this,  you will systematically build an understanding of clinical interactions by integrating a critical understanding of the readings and anthropological concepts with a different kind of primary data.

Learning Objectives:
4). Examine clinical interactions, identify and explain communicative practices that shape patient illness experience, including miscommunication
5).  Examine clinical interactions, identify and explain linguistic practices that reinforce cultural ideologies and hierarchies of medicine
6). Accurately use anthropological theories and concepts to analyze data

Skill Development:
1).  Critical thinking
2).  Ability to analyze and synthesize different kinds of scholarship (ethnographies, anthropological articles, medical journal articles and original data)
3).  Formal presentation of scholarship in two different formats
4).  Practice analyzing communicative processes
            a). Skills in transcription
            b). Skills in original data analysis
c). Skills in examining micro-level processes of clinical communications and connecting those with the macro-level processes of biomedicine

Assignment 1: Transcription (it is in the file named “Clinical interactions transcription”)
For the transcriptions you will work in pairs to identify and transcribe 3 video-taped clinical interactions. One of those transcriptions must be with an adult caregiver and a child, one must be with an adult, and one must be with a priority population patient (that is, a patient with characteristics associated with health inequities in the US (e.g. non-native English speakers, lower economic resources, no insurance, or perceived racial categories  of Native American, African American, or Hispanic).

Assignment 2: Mini Analysis of transcriptions (it is in the file named ” Mini Analysis of transcriptions)
A week after you finish your transcriptions, you will submit a Mini-Analysis using a portion of two different transcripts in which either a miscommunication occurs and/or hierarchies or assumptions of the medical world are reinforced.  This is a 2-3 page, double-spaced paper, including the quoted materials from your transcriptions. 

Assignment 3: Final Paper (***this is the paper that request to write )
The week of finals, you will turn in your final paper. You are welcome to incorporate your mini-paper into your final paper (writing accumulates!) It will be your opportunity to showcase your skills at integrating relevant course materials and concepts with evidence from your original transcription data, to build an argument analyzing how the communicative and linguistic attributes of clinical interactions are simultaneously reinforcing elements of the medical system within which the provider and patient, while impacting patient or physician life experience.
