Misconception: Researcher Influence Is Contamination

Captions available

The idea

The researcher is an instrument in qualitative work. Their position and their responses are accounted for through bracketing and reflection, not eliminated.

In practice

A study stating the researcher's relationship to the setting.

Where people slip

A qualitative report claiming the researcher had no influence has claimed something the method does not allow.
