How can non-verbalized emotions in the field be addressed in research?

摘要

This paper looks at how emotions in the field move from one context to another and between individuals, and how they change forms in an arctic Finnish village school. During the fieldwork, non-verbalized emotions influenced the events in the field and also penetrated the research. The paper asks how these non-verbalized emotions can be addressed in research. Research questions are asked on two levels: (1) How can non-verbalized emotions be described for an academic audience? (2) How can emotions experienced in the field be analyzed for academic purposes? Taking a reflexive approach to research, a narrative approach to knowledge, and an interactionist approach to emotions, the paper argues that research gains from a researcher's emotional involvement.View full textDownload full textKeywordsethnography, emotions, researchRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/1743727X.2011.578822
