本文讨论了性别动态如何使女性研究人员在进行实地工作时面临来自参与者、研究助理或旁观者的骚扰甚至暴力的风险。基于对现有野外工作安全文献的回顾，以及作者自己采访男性参与者的经验，这组作者认为，对保护研究对象的关注导致社会科学界在很大程度上忽视了在某些情况下，研究人员自己可能处于危险之中的可能性。论文最后提出了在数据收集过程中提高研究人员安全的建议策略，并呼吁主管、教授、顾问和其他指导新手研究人员完成实地工作过程的人更公开地讨论实地工作安全问题。
This paper discusses how gender dynamics may put female researchers at risk of harassment or even violence from participants, research assistants, or bystanders when conducting fieldwork. Based on a review of the existing literature on fieldwork safety, as well as the authors' own experiences interviewing male participants, the authors argue that attention to protecting subjects of research has led the social science community to largely ignore the possibility that in some cases, researchers themselves may be at risk. The paper concludes with suggested strategies for increasing researcher safety during data collection, as well as a call for issues of fieldwork safety to be more openly discussed by supervisors, professors, advisors, and others who guide novice researchers through the fieldwork process.
