Abstract
This article explores the possibility of incorporating coding and the quantitative evidence generated through coding into an investigation of epistemics in social interaction. Specifically, it considers three facets of an epistemic phenomenon as possibly subject to coding and quantifying: i) relationships between a possible practice for managing epistemics and the participants’ social identities relevant to the matter in question; ii) relationships between a possible practice and its sequential environment; and iii) the relationships between different practices used within a turn. It is argued that coding can advance a conversation analytic investigation of epistemics when it is adequately informed by and used to inform sequential analyses. Data are in Japanese.
