“…For example, we attended to the role of children in family therapy and identified ways in which children passively or actively resisted participation (O'Reilly & Parker, ). By drawing attention to the subtleties of the interaction, therapists can become more aware of children's attention during a session. - In CA work on radio counselling, Thell and Peräkylä () attended to how such encounters were closed down, while doing therapeutic work in the public sphere. They showed that callers were asked to single out useful aspects of the encounter and noted that, by requiring the formulation of conclusions by the caller, there was a recognition of their entitlement to judge the outcomes, but also checked and reviewed the caller's understanding of the problem.
- In a study of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Antaki, Leudar, and Barnes () demonstrated that there can be resistance by a client with the therapist's formulation of the problem, and this disaffiliation asserts a position of the client's felt experience.
