The contents of this communication are taken from a broader study, which is still being written-up, whose main aim was to detect and analyze the strategies used in the classroom by non-special needs techers to establish communicative relations with pupils with language difficulties.
It is therefore conceivable that physical therapists selected patients suffering from less complex problems, for example, who were treated successfully, or with whom they had good communicative relations.
For example, a constative (fact-stating) speech act (a) expresses an inner world (an intention to communicate a belief); (b) establishes a communicative relation with a hearer (and thus relates to a social world, specifically one in which both persons share a piece of information, and know they do); and (c) attempts to represent the external world.
