 Immersion is the time-honored strategy used by most ethnographers. By cutting oneself off from other interests and concerns, by listening to informants hours on end, by participating in the cultural scene, and by allowing one’s mental life to be taken over by the new culture, themes [the implicit beliefs of a culture] often emerge … This type of immersion will often reveal new relationships among domains and bring to light cultural themes you cannot discover any other way. (Spradley 1980: 145; cf. Kampa 2019)
