Dancing the Data: A Duo-Ethnographic Exploration Toward Dialogic Reflexivity in Qualitative Data Analysis

摘要

Qualitative researchers continue to push methodological boundaries to study social phenomena using arts-based practices. Research methodologists suggest that the arts open new possibilities in research through the very nature of the arts to stimulate and evoke perspectives. The arts promote dialogue, which yields new insights, highlights multiple meanings, and questions norm-based traditions. This article presents findings from a duo-ethnography to explore the application of the arts as a dialogic-reflexive process during the data analysis phase in qualitative research. Findings contribute with insights into how science and culture are combined methodologically to facilitate dialogic-reflexivity in research and meaning-making.
