Constitutive approach to communication blz15 = communication can create or bring into existence
something that has not been there before, such as an agreement, a contract or and identity
Frame blz12 = a basic form of knowledge that provides a definition of a scenario, either because both

context or society as they are used over time
Symbols (symbolen) blz6 = arbitrary representations of ideas, objects, people, relationships, cultures,
genders, races and so forth (geen direct verband tussen symbool en betekenis -> woord stoel en
stoel)
H2: identities, perceptions
Altercasting blz34 = how language can impose a certain identity on people, and how language can
support or reject the identity of another person (As a good friend… Only a fool would…)
Attitude of reflection (symbolic interactionism) (houding van reflective) blz33 = thinking about how
you look in other people’s eyes, or reflecting that other people can see you as a social object from
their point of view
Back region blz28 = a frame where a social interaction is regarded as not under public scrutiny, so
people do not have to present their public faces
Front region blz28 = a frame where a social interaction is regarded as under public scrutiny, so
people have to be on their best behaviour or acting out their professional roles or intended “faces”
, Identities (identiteiten) blz21 = symbolic creations based on the performance of personal roles, how
people perceive themselves, and how people want to be viewed by others
Perception (perceptie) blz21 = process of actively selecting, organizing, interpreting, and evaluating
information, activities, people, and essentially all the things that make up your world
Personal constructs (persoonlijke constructies) blz27 = individualized ways of construing or
understanding the world and its contents; bipolar dimensions used to measure and evaluate things
(kind-mean, intelligent-ignorant)

associated material

transact an individual person’s view of who he or she is
Symbolic self (symbolische zelf) blz32 = the self that is transacted in interaction with other people;
that arises out of social interaction, not vice versa; that does not just “belong to you”
H3:
Accommodation (accommodatie) blz48 = when people change their accent, their rate of speech, and
their words in order to indicate a relational state with the person to whom they are talking

exonerations, explanations, or accusations
