Talking across the differences in collaborative fieldwork: unanticipated consequences

Article Abstract:

Sociologists should have fresh viewpoints on how they can 'talk across differences' in collaborative fieldwork. Collaboration refers to the sprouting of mutual interests between researchers and subjects. Oftentimes, relationships formed in the field lead to unanticipated consequences. Sociologists should focus on finding respectful approaches to understanding the complexity of the social world.

Article Abstract:

The authors advocate methods of inquiry that access how patients develop opinions of their health care experiences, rather than relying solely on their opinions, in order to more appropriately address concerns regarding satisfaction.
