Steven Ariss was involved in the 'Phototalk' study with Hewlett Packard, during which time he used Conversation Analysis methods to investigate the structure and content of talk focused upon the collaborative viewing of photographs.  Some of the findings are published in the 2002 CSCW conference proceedings (Frohlich et al, 2002), and in Chapter Seven of the book "Audiophotography" (Frohlich, 2004).  He has a continued interest in interactions that are influenced by visual images and artifacts.   

Steven has a background in Sociology and completed a PhD in Health Sciences at the University of York in 2005.  His Doctoral Thesis is titled "Exploring Interactions Between General Practitioners and Frequently Attending Patients".  This study uses Conversation Analysis to explore issues that are important for these types of interactions, and provides a comparison with consultations for 'new' or acute problems.  An important theme of this work is the 'heartsink' phenomenon in General Practice i.e. the negative emotional reaction of GPs when certain patients attend. http://www2.fmg.uva.nl/emca/phds.htm#Steven Ariss

He also works for the Bradford Dementia Group at The University of Bradford, evaluating the Local Partnerships for Older People Programme (POPP).
