Indigenous Innovations in Qualitative Research Method: Investigating the Private World of Family Life

Huia Tomlins Jahnke, Annemarie Gillies · 2012 · International Journal of Qualitative Methods

Summary. This paper presents an indigenous research method developed with Māori families to study family communication and well-being. Rather than imposing external researchers, family members record their own conversations and participate in interpreting the data. The approach gives research participants active control over what aspects of their private lives they share and how findings are understood, combining Western and Māori-centered ethical practices.
