Methodology: Through the transcription of the interview, and with the help of a work table, their verbal language is assessed -force ideas, premises, framing, rhetoric and linguistics- and, on the other hand, their non-verbal language -paralanguage, kinesics, chronemics and proxemics. Results: The use, in most of the responses, of a mobilizing function of their discourse is perceived, as well as the use of demand/solution premises.
