What Difference Does the Difference Make? Understanding Difference across Perspectives.

Green, Judith L.; McClelland, Marleen

Discourse Processes, v27 n2 p219-30 1999

Comments on a set of five analyses that all examine the same data (the discourse of a problem-based learning group in medicine). Argues that each of the analyses is representative not only of a research tradition, but also of a distinct research language and, as such, can be analyzed on the basis of the expressive potential of that language.
