图片激发研究在定性健康研究中引起了一定的关注。然而,很少有研究人员专门关注男性的健康和/或疾病经历。在这篇文章中,作者讨论了在19名前列腺癌幸存者亚队列中使用照片诱导的好处,这些患者来自一项更大的人种学研究。具体来说,参与者被要求想象他们被付钱去举办一个名为“与我的前列腺癌生活”的摄影展,这个摄影展将从他们独特的角度展示前列腺癌。作者随后在个别访谈中使用照片引出技术与参与者讨论照片。这些方法提供了一些独特的、意想不到的好处,作者分享了这些好处的细节,以指导研究人员考虑类似的方法。此外,作者对未来的照片启发应用于男性健康研究提出了具体建议。
Photo elicitation studies have attracted modest attention in qualitative health research. However, few researchers have focused exclusively on men's health and/or illness experiences. In this article, the authors discuss the benefits of using photo elicitation among a subcohort of 19 prostate cancer survivors from a larger ethnographic study. Specifically, participants were asked to imagine that they were being paid to mount a photographic exhibition entitled Living With My Prostate Cancer, an exhibition that would show prostate cancer from their unique perspective. The authors subsequently discussed the photographs with the participants during individual interviews using photo elicitation techniques. The methods provided some unique and unanticipated benefits, the details of which the authors share to guide researchers considering similar approaches. In addition, the authors make specific recommendations for future photo elicitation applications to men's health research.
