Moaning, whinging and laughing: the subjective side of complaints (2005, background): “In keeping with discursive psychology’s general approach to such matters (Edwards and Potter, 2005), there is no implication here that Lesley or anyone else is expressing ‘actual’ or ‘underlying’ states of mind.”
Making psychology relevant (2005, background): “DP researchers have argued that the indexical and rhetorically oriented features of cognitive constructions means that conceptual analysis, while important, is not sufficient for analytic work (Edwards & Potter, 2005; Potter & Edwards, 2003).”

Compliance, resistance and incipient compliance when responding to directives (2012, background): “At the same time it will be guided by discursive psychological principles in considering the role of cognition or psychological states in unfolding action (Edwards, 1997; Edwards and Potter, 2005).”
