Description
Summary:This study analyzes a complete discussion thread of a Public Internet Message Board with regards to the use of interactional repair strategies.

Participants use the special framing conditions of public Internet Message Boards to carefully renegotiate their interpersonal relationships after conflictive passages on a one-to-one basis: this cannot be accomplished in the same way in natural poly- or multilogues.
