Reflexivity is a popular tool used to analyse personal,
intersubjective and social processes which shape research projects.
It enables researchers, particularly within the qualitative
tradition, to acknowledge their role and the situated nature of
their research. In the current climate, which sees the popularity
of qualitative methods coupled with increased public and
professional scrutiny of research, reflexivity provides a means of
bolstering greater transparency and quality in research.
This book recognises the considerable value of reflexivity to
researchers, and provides a means to navigate this field. The book
is foremost a practical guide which examines reflexivity at
different stages of the research process. The editors and
contributors offer candid approaches to the subject, which supply
readers with diverse strategies on how to do reflexivity in
practice.
Features
* Provides an accessible, practical guide to reflexive research
processes, methods and outcomes
* Encompasses both the health and social science fields
* Includes contributions from international researchers
The book is aimed at postgraduate and final year students of
health and social sciences. Interested clinicians will also find
useful insights in the text.
