communication&health

Eric Mayor, University of Neuchatel

Social Psychology and Counseling & Orientation Psychology were my main fields of study during my degree course at the University of Lausanne.
In my master thesis research I explored the organizational principles of the social representation of the psychologist.

My current research project, supervised by Prof. Adrian Bangerter, consists of two studies and focuses on discourse processes in shift handover sessions of medical care units.
The first study aims to identify the procedures of shift handovers of medical care units in Switzerland.
In the second one, in-depth observations of communication processes in shift handover sessions will be conducted during five consecutive days at different care units.
Content analysis of conversation transcriptions will be performed, leading to within-case and cross-case analysis.
