反思并为公众监督提供这些反思通常被认为是道德的关键因素，严格的定性研究。然而，反身性的普遍概念化需要质疑和加强。我们的目标是通过叙事范式的透镜来检验反身性实践，特别是研究者的反身性叙述。我们的目的是证明，承认叙事重建在反身性中的作用，创造更多的伦理研究，因此，研究人员更明确地认识到这一点是至关重要的。两位作者都对采访者和参与者之间的一次特殊交流进行了分析。这个分析强调，尽管我们尽了最大的努力去“做反身性”，无论是在面试之后还是在回顾面试时，都有一些影响因素逃过了我们的眼睛。对过去的反思尤其不完美。如果没有充分认识到这一点，我们就没有利用所有可用的工具来确保诚实、道德的研究。
Being reflexive and providing these reflections for public scrutiny is often considered a key element of ethical, rigorous qualitative research. Prevalent conceptualizations of reflexivity, however, need interrogating and sharpening. We aim to contribute to this by examining reflexive practice, and in particular researchers' reflexive accounts, through the lens of the narrative paradigm. Our aim is to demonstrate that acknowledging the role of narrative reconstruction in reflexivity creates more ethical research, and that it is therefore crucial for researchers to more explicitly recognize this. Both authors present an analysis of one particular exchange between interviewer and participant. This analysis highlights that despite our best efforts at "doing reflexivity," both immediately following and when reflecting back on an interview, there are influential factors that escape our gaze. Reflections of the past are particularly imperfect. Without fully recognizing this, we are not utilizing all the tools available for ensuring honest, ethical research.
