Resources for Interpreters, Educators, Researchers, and Students

“Role refers to behavior rather than position, 

so that one may enact a role but cannot occupy a role.”

Turner, R. H. (1956) ‘Role-taking, role standpoint, and reference-group behavior’.

A core tenet of Role-Space: 

Roles are what we DO, they are not entities that we HAVE.
