Kerschbaum identifies a significant gap in current scholarship, noting that interactional analyses of disabled people talking together are "much rarer" than accounts involving service providers or researchers. She highlights Wan’s focus group in chapter 7 of three hard-of-hearing women as a valuable exception that reveals complex tensions around identification. Consequently, she urges future researchers to investigate how discursive constructions might shift in contexts where disabled people interact directly with one another, removed from the influence of medical practitioners.
