This thesis by Elin Nilsson explores the challenges faced by couples in managing dementia, focusing on their communicative strategies and the concept of 'we-ness'. Utilizing multimodal conversation analysis, the research examines how couples navigate sensitive topics and support each other, with a particular emphasis on the interactions between spouses where one partner has dementia. The study highlights the importance of relational dynamics and joint resourcefulness in storytelling and memory recall. The findings underscore the need for a couple-sensitive approach in social work, emphasizing relational and interactional aspects. It provides valuable insights for practitioners and educators in social work, aiming to enhance understanding and support mechanisms for couples living with dementia.
