It expands SFL’s empirical scope to understudied, high-stakes institutional contexts like mediation, enriching our understanding of register and genre. Methodologically, this research bridges computational data mining with SFL’s meaning-oriented tradition, providing a solution to the ‘delicacy vs. scale’ dilemma which is capable of handling large-scale conversational data while preserving linguistic and sociological insights. Furthermore, the research extends existing SFL\/Appraisal-based identity studies by tracking the co-occurrences of all evaluative options within the Appraisal system network, systematically mapping the relationship between the reservoir of meanings in a culture and the repertoire a given individual can mobilize, as well as the relationship between the reservoir of systems populating the realization hierarchy and their actualization in text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTargeted at scholars in linguistics, discourse analysis, communication studies, and computational social sciences, this book offers a sophisticated understanding of how language functions as a dynamic tool for identity negotiation. It provides researchers and practitioners with innovative theoretical frameworks and methodological approaches for analysing discursive behaviours in high-conflict interactions. This book also provides practical insights for mediation practitioners, demonstrating how language can be strategically employed to facilitate more effective communication and resolution strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2026-05-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789819562558\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-981-95-6256-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 273\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45169160519820,"sku":"9789819562558","price":116.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789819562558_8d689972-8489-4068-a50c-e10da6c54a31.jpg?v=1779941684","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789819562558","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
