|© 2005||304 pages||SAGE Publications Ltd| How should the
researcher approach the sensitive subject of the child? What are
the ethical issues involved in researching children's
experiences? In essays written by a collection of key,
international authors, Researching Children's Experience
addresses these questions, and examines up-to-date
methodological and conceptual approaches to researching
children. This book is a practical, comprehensive and
interdisciplinary guide for advanced students and researchers,
exploring a range of studies, and the theoretical and ethical
motivations behind them. The book is divided into three coherent
sections: - Conceptual, methodological and ethical issues in
researching children's experiences. - Methods for conducting
research with children. - The generation and analysis of text.
Researching Children's Experience provides examples of how
researchers from a variety of social science perspectives have
set about carrying out research into children's experience.
