Abstract
Conversation analysis’ inductive qualitative approach consistently relies on contrastive patterns across collections of cases making the data amenable to hypothesis generation about inter-relationships among practices as well as relationships between practices and exogenous variables. But how can this quantification be done in ways that do not return us to a Balesian version of coding that disregards CA principles? CA-grounded coding should be designed to build codes out of rich conversation analytic work, which includes being true to members’ orientations to phenomena as well as to incorporating both compositional and positional aspects of phenomena into the coding scheme. In this special issue, we bring together scholars who have conducted CA-grounded coding studies to discuss the methodological issues involved in the development and application of a coding scheme; the practicalities of these endeavors with CA principles; and the ways in which challenges can be overcome.
