Abstract
Dualisms, such as the mind-body duality, have pervaded Western thought since antiquity, but they have been regarded as theoretical problems not socially constructed facts. In line with the research tradition of discursive psychology, this chapter uses data from ‘technique coaching’ interactions in sport to explore how participants construct a surface/deep duality as a resource for coaching. This chapter contrasts situations in which coaches and athletes alike take it as unproblematic that a coach might know how an athlete is feeling, with situations in which coaches act as if they do not know and make ‘feel-inquiries’. I argue that these are a resource used to upgrade the athlete’s participation in the coaching feedback process. This chapter demonstrates how dualisms may be enacted as member’s resource.
