Abstract

The purpose of this text is to offer a methodological path for describing the collaboration process. I use the tools of discursive psychology to explore collaborative forms of talk within a community of therapists in a supervision setting. Data analysis shows this community has created a unique format for collaborating, with the main features of this format being simultaneous and multiple participation, as well as utterances designed to invite the presence of other voices into the conversational ground. Through analysis of real fragments of interaction, I show the multiple facets collaboration can take. I specifically discuss three instances of collaboration: repetition, the joint creation of utterances and choral participation. This way of analyzing real interactions can add new understandings of collaboration as a contextual and situated activity. It can also provide a new pathway to reflect on processes of supplementation and joint action.
