个人简介
Dr Olivia Knapton is a lecturer in linguistics specialising in qualitative discourse analysis within the field of health.
Research
Olivia's research falls into two areas of health and discourse. Firstly, she researches the relationship between discourse structures found in health advice and public compliance to that advice, public perceptions of health threats, and public use of the media for health information. A large part of this research investigates how the discourses of disease in the media relate to the discourses used by local communities. Secondly, Olivia researches how people with mental health problems structure their experiences through various cognitive conceptualisations. For example, she has used discourse analysis to investigate the ways in which subjective experiences of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and anorexia are structured by image schematic and metaphorical patterns. Cutting across her research are discourses of anxiety about health, illness and contamination that continually overlap with issues of gender and women’s experiences of their bodies.
In terms of approach, Olivia explores ways in which to combine meaning from stable, cognitive conceptualisations with meaning from contextually-situated discourse production.
