In this paper we focus on important considerations when planning and conducting qualitative interviews on sensitive topics. Drawing on experiences of conducting interviews with dementia caregivers, a framework of essential elements in qualitative interviewing was developed to emphasize study participants' needs while also providing guidance for researchers. Starting with a definition of sensitive research, the framework includes preparing for interviews, interacting with gatekeepers of vulnerable groups, planning for interview timing, and location, building relationships and conducting therapeutic interactions, protecting ethically vulnerable participants, and planning for disengagement. This framework has the potential to improve the effectiveness of sensitive interviewing with vulnerable groups. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
在本文中,我们重点关注在规划和开展关于敏感话题的定性访谈时的重要考量因素。借鉴对痴呆症照料者进行访谈的经验,我们制定了一个定性访谈基本要素框架,以强调研究参与者的需求,同时也为研究人员提供指导。该框架从敏感研究的定义入手,包括访谈准备、与弱势群体的把关人互动、访谈时间和地点规划、建立关系与进行治疗性互动、保护在伦理上易受伤害的参与者以及脱离接触规划。这个框架有可能提高对弱势群体进行敏感访谈的有效性。© 2016 威利期刊公司
