Abstract | Considers traditional approaches to identity across life span, then presents discursive perspective showing how, during interaction, individuals actively construct age-salient identities for themselves and others through talk. Conversational processes of age-identity management are explored in corpus of geriatric medical outpatient consultations. Concludes that physicians may deny age-relevance of medical troubles that patients routinely endorse. (Author/NB) |
