Life is out there: a comment on Griffin
Discourse Studies 9 (2):276-282 (2007)
Abstract
Open-ended interviews remain the default data generation technique for qualitative psychology and sociology. This commentary raises questions with Griffin's understanding of naturalistic materials and the emic/ etic distinction. It reiterates problems in the use of open-ended interviews, and repeats the case for more considered support for their use.Other Versions
