Abstract
This article proposesan associationbetween the principleof recipient design–a principle of humaninteractionand of fundamental importance to Conversation Analysis(CA), and some of the ideas that guide the NewLiteracy Studies(NLS). The interactional principleof recipient designbecomes salient and relevantto NLS as it focusesprecisely on the resourcesthatinteractants rely on in order to producetalk that is both context-sensitive and particularized to each interlocutor. Our analysis, that centers around medical consultations, demonstrateshow physicians make useof a rangeof semiotic resourcesto adjust their talk to differentinterlocutors. The analysis shows that theydo so by orienting to what their interlocutor displays in each new turn at talk not only concerning his/her understanding of what came before, but also on his/her level of health literacy which, in its turn, relates to his/her social, educational, cultural, and linguistic background. In addition to claiming that the principleof recipient designcan (and perhaps should) be associatedwith and incorporated by the NewLiteracy Studies, we also sustain the relevance of further researchthat looks into that association and the possible practical advancements it can generate towards the promotion of more equitable citizens’ socialparticipation.
