Abstract

<p>In this papar we explore one of different forms of practical activities that are known as tojisha kenkyu, which are group sessions for persons with difficulties in their daily lives, mental disabilities in our data, and especially focus on status and actions of a tojisha as a facilitator in interaction of tojisha kenkyu sessions. We examine how it is possible that, and how smoothly it is achieved that the facilitator sometimes “shifts” his/her foreground category to become a participant, and find that membership of tojisha is established by self-presentation of the illness whose name is made by each of the participants themselves. We also analyze how this kind of facilitator design his/her talk to structure members’ contribution in the sessions, and find that a facilitator takes most of his/her turns using self-selection technique as well as often select next speaker, while he/she acts depending on each situation even when he/she does not select the next.</p>
