Abstract

As interpretivist-constructivist and critical scholarship has advanced within leisure science, so too does the need for more comprehensive approaches for reflexivity. Reflexivity, which can be described as an act, capacity, or practice to self-critique one’s own biases that may influence the construction of knowledge, is an important means for meeting standards of goodness or quality within qualitative research. This study sought to strengthen leisure research through a conceptual exploration of reflexivity. The authors created a series of vignettes to analyze their past research experiences, employing hermeneutics and feminist epistemologies to guide reflexive practice. Consequently, social and relational context of knowledge, representation and voice, positionality and embodiment, awareness of politico-ideological character, and unconscious/emotional entanglement emerged as dimensions of a reflexive framework. Informed by this process, a collection of questions are offered as a tool to assist others with more holistic reflexive practice within the leisure sciences.

摘要

随着解释主义-建构主义和批判性学术在休闲科学领域取得进步，对更全面的反思方法的需求也在增加。反思性可以被描述为自我批评自己的偏见的行为、能力或实践，这些偏见可能会影响知识的构建，是在定性研究中达到良好或质量标准的重要手段。本研究试图通过对反思性的概念探索来加强休闲研究。作者创作了一系列小插曲来分析他们过去的研究经验，运用诠释学和女权主义认识论来指导反思性实践。因此，知识、表征和声音的社会和关系背景，地位和体现、对政治意识形态特征的认识以及无意识/情感纠缠作为反思框架的维度出现。通过这个过程，提供了一系列问题作为工具来帮助其他人在休闲科学中进行更全面的反思实践。
