This paper describes videotaped recording as a data collection method when conducting participant observation in a psychiatric nursing study. The videotaped episodes were part of the daily life of psychiatric nursing in a hospital environment. The advantages and limitations of using videotaped recording in nursing research will be discussed. This paper is based on two studies. The data consisted of 21 videotaped episodes of nursing report sessions or interdisciplinary team meetings in the psychiatric clinic of a university hospital. The participants consisted of patients, their significant others, nurses, doctors, social workers and physiotherapists. All videotaped material was transcribed verbatim. An essential advantage of videotaping is that most potentially useful interaction and behaviour can be captured. The advantage in terms of the credibility of videotaping was that the investigator was able to review the same videotaped situations again and again. Videotaped material is rich and provides several possibilities for analysing the data. In these studies data and source triangulation enabled the researchers to reduce personal influence on the results. The investigator must also be aware of the limitations concerning this method. The most essential limitations are mechanical problems and the influence of videotaping on behaviour. Careful ethical considerations are important concerning personal privacy, informed consent and respect for the self-determination of psychiatric patients.
本文介绍了在一项精神科护理研究中进行参与观察时,将录像记录作为一种数据收集方法。录像片段是医院环境中精神科护理日常生活的一部分。将讨论在护理研究中使用录像记录的优点和局限性。本文基于两项研究。数据包括一所大学医院精神科门诊21段护理报告会议或跨学科团队会议的录像片段。参与者包括患者、他们的重要他人、护士、医生、社会工作者和物理治疗师。所有录像材料都逐字转录。录像的一个重要优点是可以捕捉到大多数潜在有用的互动和行为。就录像的可信度而言,其优点是研究者能够反复查看相同的录像场景。录像材料丰富,为数据分析提供了多种可能性。在这些研究中,数据和来源三角测量使研究人员能够减少个人对结果的影响。研究者还必须意识到这种方法的局限性。最主要的局限性是机械问题以及录像对行为的影响。在个人隐私、知情同意和尊重精神科患者的自决权方面,仔细的伦理考量很重要。
