在一项关于新西兰高中学生对其权利的看法的更广泛的研究项目中，第一作者对一组学生进行了采访，这与她对其他三所高中的学生组的采访明显不同。这篇文章的写作最初是因为人们认为这次“明显不同”的采访是一次“失败”，因为所引出的口头文本有限。在这篇文章中，我们展示了我们可以从有关具体化、访谈环境、沉默、笑声的数据中学到什么，并且在这个过程中，我们尝试练习 Pillow (2003) 提倡的“不舒服的反射”。我们认为，一次明显“失败”的访谈可以让我们了解定性研究的理论和实践以及知识生产的脆弱性。最后，我们确定了这次“失败”采访的经历如何为我们当前的研究提供信息。
In a broader research project about students’ perceptions of their rights in New Zealand high schools, the first author conducted an interview with a group of students that was noticeably different from her interviews with groups of students at three other high schools. This article was prompted in the first instance by a sense of this ‘noticeably different’ interview being a ‘failure’ because of the limited spoken text elicited. In this article we demonstrate what we can learn from data regarding embodiment, the interview setting, silence, laughter and, in the process, we attempt to practise ‘uncomfortable reflexivities’ advocated by Pillow (2003). We argue that an apparently ‘failed’ interview has a great deal to teach us about the theory and practice of qualitative research and the tenuous nature of the production of knowledge. We finish by identifying how our experience of this ‘failed’ interview informs our current research.
