摘要: I begin with the origins of Loughborough University's Discourse and Rhetoric Group (DARG), in particular discursive psychology (DP). Rather than attempting to summarize DP, versions which are plentiful, article attempts clarify various relationships tensions between DP other kinds social psychology, particularly experimental. Common sense is defined as DP's topic rather rival; aim study how people deploy everyday psychological notions manage business within talk text, what they accomplish by such deployments, trying, experimental often characterized doing, replace it all something purportedly better. Claims for being interpretative scientific rejected, appeal an ‘interpretative gap’ phenomena, data, analysis, conclusions that research must manage, gap much larger quantitative work. The importance pursuing causal explanations phenomena questioned, asserted, discovering, through rigorous empirical conceptual normative bases human conduct accountability.
