The Role of Music in the Lives of Homeless Young People in Seattle WA and Vancouver BC

摘要

I outline my proposed dissertation study of music in the lives of homeless young people. Participants will include homeless young people and service providers in Seattle WA and Vancouver BC. The study is a mixed methods design including surveys, semi-structured interviews, and design activities. This study will lead to contributions to human-computer interaction (HCI) and the psychosocial literature on youth homelessness.
