定性研究人员应该是他们正在研究的人群的成员,还是不应该?尽管这个问题是在定性研究的背景下进行探讨的,但它通常保留用于观察、实地研究和民族志的讨论。作者在与特定家长群体进行研究时,通过说明一位作者的内部身份和另一位作者的局外人身份,扩展了讨论并探讨了成员角色。对每个会员身份进行定性研究的优势和挑战进行了审查。作者没有从二分法的角度来考虑这个问题,而是探讨了两者之间的空间概念,使研究人员能够同时占据内部人和外部人的位置,而不是内部人或外部人的位置。
Should qualitative researchers be members of the population they are studying, or should they not? Although this issue has been explored within the context of qualitative research, it has generally been reserved for discussions of observation, field research, and ethnography. The authors expand that discussion and explore membership roles by illustrating the insider status of one author and the outsider status of the other when conducting research with specific parent groups. The strengths and challenges of conducting qualitative research from each membership status are examined. Rather than consider this issue from a dichotomous perspective, the authors explore the notion of the space between that allows researchers to occupy the position of both insider and outsider rather than insider or outsider.
