The book invites readers on a journey through the landscape of interview research, providing the "hows" and "whys" of research interviewing, and outlines paths for students to follow on the way to research goals. Thoroughly updated to account for all recent developments in qualitative interviewing, the New Edition expands its focus on the practical, epistemological, and ethical issues involved in interviewing, while maintaining the fluid and logical structure it has become known for throughout the text.
This is a concise introduction to the richness and scope of interviewing in social science research, teaching the craft of interview research with practical, hands-on guidance. Incorporating discussion of the wide variety of methods in interview-based research and the different approaches to reading the data, this book will help you to navigate the broad field of qualitative research with confidence and get out there and start collecting your data.
In recent years, the impact of postmodernism has reverberated throughout the social and human sciences. Psychology and Postmodernism breaks new ground by exploring the implications of postmodernist ideas for psychology. Contributors examine central themes of postmodernism as they relate to psychology: the nature of the self, local knowledge versus universal knowledge, and the pivotal role of language in social life. As new possibilities for psychology are outlined, theoretical reformulations are placed alongside implications for new psychological practice and method. In addition, this groundbreaking volume presents criticism and support for postmodern perspectives, from feminist criticism of postmodern "deconstruction" to argument with the usefulness of clear distinctions between a "modern" and "postmodern" psychology. Psychology and Postmodernism is cutting-edge material for those interested in the evolution of psychology in the postmodern era. "With authors from the United States, England, Denmark and Norway, it represents an international array of perspectives on the relations of psychology and postmodernism. . . . It provides a portrait of psychology at the cutting edge of developments in the arts and humanities. Until recently, these developments had been simply ignored by psychology. Now, they are beginning to be bandied about by the appropriation of poorly understood phrases and ideas. This volume should add real depth to that dialogue." --The Humanistic Psychologist
