Description
The Active Interview provides an academic foundation for exploring active interviewing methods in qualitative research and interviewing. This approach considers the interviewer and interviewee as equal partners in constructing meaning around an interview event, shifting the traditional power dynamic between researcher and subject. By adopting this active approach, researchers can develop more nuanced and richly textured data, while also improving the conduct of interviews and analysis of results. This concise volume offers clear guidance for novice researchers and provides valuable insights for those already familiar with qualitative methods in various fields. Suitable for students and professionals working in sociology, anthropology, communication, psychology, education, social work, gerontology, and management, The Active Interview offers a helpful and cogent guidebook for conducting effective interviews that foster meaningful collaboration between parties.
