在一个参与性的研究项目中，与残疾、有护理经验或其他弱势群体的年轻人一起工作，合作写小说是倾听和放大他们声音的核心方法。我们讨论了在这个迭代过程中如何在研究的不同阶段捕捉共鸣，从而创造出通过许多不同参与者过滤的故事。通过对构建48个短篇小说的复杂过程的个人和联合反思，我们展示了集体讲故事如何解决对虚构研究成果的批评，并认为由此产生的故事可以被认为是严谨和忠实的研究成果。我们建议，这些研究成果保存和扩散的边缘化的年轻人的意义，并挑战现有的叙述他们的生活，因为他们自己经历的缺席或扭曲。
Working in a participatory research project with young people who are disabled, care-experienced or otherwise disadvantaged, collaborative fiction writing was a core method of hearing and amplifying their voices. We discuss how meanings were made in this iterative process of capturing resonances in the different stages of the research, resulting in the creation of stories filtered through many different participants. Through individual and joint reflections on the complex processes of constructing the 48 short stories, we demonstrate how collective storytelling can address criticisms of fictional research outputs as (in)valid social science, and argue instead that the resulting stories can be considered rigorous and faithful research findings. We suggest that these research outputs preserve and proliferate the meanings of marginalised young people, and challenge the absence or distortion of existing narratives about their lives as experienced by themselves.
