Communicative action with dementing people: loss and development of communication power of dementing people and their caregivers in the domestic setting

对于2/3的痴呆患者，家庭环境是护理、治疗和支持的主要场所。这些活动和协调过程是通过沟通行动进行的。无论是日常问题的相互合作和协调之间的痴呆症患者和他们的亲属，也是如何在互动处理他们在其家庭环境中进行了沟通的关注。本项目旨在通过追求以下三个问题来填补这一研究空白：1）。在家庭环境中，痴呆患者和他们的亲属之间的沟通行为是如何实际执行的，特别是考虑到相互的影响，以及为什么沟通行为使个体之间的共同取向成为可能？2.）的情况。痴呆症是否会导致亲属和患者失去沟通能力（Reichertz 2009）？如果是这样的话，那么在痴呆症的条件下，从日常战略的角度来看，这种沟通能力如何重建呢？3.）第三章哪种社会比喻模式（Elias 1997）确实从沟通中获得的相互调整中出现，作为日常战略合作和协调过程的基础？这三个问题应通过以下方式回答：（a）在家庭环境中进行参与性观察，包括治疗和护理;（B）对选定情况进行重点录像;以及（c）与痴呆患者的参考人进行叙述性访谈。

For 2/3 of all dementing persons the domestic setting is the main location for care, treatment and support. These activities and coordinating processes take place by means of communicative actions. Neither everyday problems of reciprocal cooperation and coordination between dementing persons and their relatives, nor the ways in which the interactants deal with them communicatively in their domestic setting have been focused on. This project aims to close this research gap by pursuing the following three questions:1.) How are communicative actions between dementing persons and their relatives practically performed in the domestic setting, with special regard to the reciprocal effects, and why do communicative actions enable a co-orientation between the individuals?2.) Is dementia causing the loss of communication power (Reichertz 2009) of both the relatives and the patients? If so, how can this communication power possibly be reconstructed under the conditions of the dementia from an everyday strategic perspective?3.) Which social figurative patterns (Elias 1997) do emerge from the communicatively obtained adjustment to each other as a basis for everyday strategic cooperation and coordination processes?These three questions shall be answered by (a) participatory observations within the domestic setting, containing treatment and care, (b) by focused videography of selected situations as well as (c) by generating narrative interviews with reference persons of the dementia patients..
