摘要

本文探讨了在小儿神经科就诊进行视频脑电图测试时，当知识的社会分配和人际关系共同作用于好消息的传递和接收时所产生的互动问题。人们通常认为好消息很容易传递和接受，与此相反，我发现在这种情况下，好消息偶尔会充满犹豫。通过对话分析，我探讨了造成这种麻烦的原因，并认为在这种情况下，与好消息相关的一些困难来自于它的结构：医生优先考虑传达消息的 "事实"，而不是描述其价值。然而，家长将医生对新闻的评估视为新闻传递的关键。当医生未能对其所提供的信息进行评估时，家长往往会认为所传达的消息不完整，这不仅会给他们接收消息造成困难，还会导致消息传达时间延长。

When Good News Falls Flat: Complications in the Delivery and Reception of Good News in Pediatric Neurology

This article considers interactional trouble that arises when the social distribution of knowledge and interpersonal relationships come together in the delivery and reception of good news in pediatric neurology visits for video-electroencephalography testing. Contrary to common perceptions of good news as easy to deliver and receive, I find that it is occasionally fraught with hesitancy in this context. Using conversation analysis, I explore what drives this trouble and argue that some of the difficulty associated with good news in this context arises from its structure: Physicians prioritize conveying “the facts” of the news over characterizing its valence. However, parents treat physicians’ assessments of the news as critical for the news delivery. When physicians fail to evaluate the information they present, parents tend to treat news deliveries as incomplete, which not only causes difficulties in their reception of the news but also leads to protracted news deliveries.
