Objectives: We assessed if using a biographical method, social biography, alongside photovoice, and the Five Whys could facilitate critical dialogue in a youth participatory action research (YPAR) context. Method: In a YPAR program, we added social biography to photovoice and the Five Whys during the problem definition phase. We coded ethnographic fieldnotes to examine the quality of critical discourse. Participants were six 10-11 year old Latinx children, some from mixed-status families. Results: Social biography enlivened critical dialogue when children defined the problem for their project: the accountability of la migra, or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Conclusions: Social biography is a valuable tool for democratizing knowledge production with children through a liberatory framework. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved).

走向知识民主化：在 YPAR 中与孩子一起使用照片语音、社会传记和“五个为什么”。

目标：我们评估了使用传记方法、社会传记、照片语音和五个为什么可以促进青年参与行动研究 (YPAR) 环境中的批判性对话。方法：在 YPAR 程序中，我们在问题定义阶段将社交传记添加到 photovoice 和五个为什么。我们对人种学实地笔记进行编码，以检查批判性话语的质量。参与者是六名 10-11 岁的拉丁裔儿童，其中一些来自混合身份家庭。结果：当孩子们为他们的项目定义问题时，社会传记激活了批判性对话：la migra 或移民和海关执法 (ICE) 的责任。结论：社会传记是一种有价值的工具，可以通过解放框架使儿童的知识生产民主化。（PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA，
