A Practical Psychoanalytic Guide to Reflexive Research
Author: Joshua Holmes
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429884400
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
A Practical Psychoanalytic Guide to Reflexive Research offers an accessible guide to enriched qualitative research. In this novel approach, the researcher’s feelings and empathy in relation to participants take centre stage, leading to fresh, exciting and usable research findings. The psychoanalytic concept of reverie refers to those startling and unexpected images, feelings and daydreams which can come to mind as we interact with other people in the world. Qualitative research involves interacting with human subjects, and the book shows how uncanny or troubling reverie experiences can be turned to good use by being linked back to deeper research questions and hypotheses. Joshua Holmes critically explores the role of self-reflection (reflexivity) in psychoanalysis and qualitative research. Practical guidance is offered while planning research; conducting research interviews; analysing interview data; teaching methods which foster the capacity for reverie; and in relation to research groups. Examples are given throughout, including the author’s own missteps along the way, in which he shares the importance of learning from experience. The book breathes life into research processes offering much-needed clinical relevance. The method moves away from one-size-fits all, formulaic research procedures and brings tenor, colour and texture into the research process, to create vivid, real-life meaningful findings. A Practical Psychoanalytic Guide to Reflexive Research will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate qualitative researchers wishing to enhance their reflexive practice, while psychotherapists and psychoanalysts will find a genuinely psychoanalytic research method, where their clinical skills become vital capacities rather than an awkward hindrance.

Feminist Fieldwork Analysis
Author: Sherryl Kleinman
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 9781412905497
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Feminist Fieldwork Analysis teaches researchers how to think in terms of the feminist perspective and how to translate their research into feminist practice and analysis. This "tricks of the trade" guide gives researchers the principles for doing qualitative work, examples of solid feminist studies, and analytic questions to help identify feminist issues while in the field or at the desk. These issues aren't just about gender. Rather, they are about inequality. Feminist research sheds light on inequality so that people can undo it. Author Sherryl Kleinman offers angles for feminist analysis, or the things to keep in mind when doing fieldwork and developing an analysis. Key Features: Gives researchers five principles for doing, qualitative work and research: Each chapter provides a guiding feminist principle (which corresponds with the chapter title): Talk Is Action, Similarities Can Be Deceiving, Sexism Can Be Anywhere, The Personal Is Political, and Everything Is More Than One Thing. Contains real world examples of feminist fieldwork analysis: Engaging examples illustrate the principles as feminist researchers apply their findings to their everyday lives. Poses questions to bring to any feminist qualitative project: Kleinman incorporates analytical questions at the end of each chapter that encourage researchers to think about what to ask, where to look, and how to make sense of what they've seen and heard. Covers the entire research process: The principles and questions found in this book can be used at any stage of the research process, including choosing a setting, analyzing an observation, and writing a report. Helps researchers interpret data in new ways: By applying what they find in this book, researchers see things in the field they would not have noticed otherwise, or they might see connections between pieces of data that previously appeared unrelated. Book jacket.
