Isi artikel

This article narrates the author’s experience of obtaining institutional review board (IRB) approval for her dissertation study. Although her research topic was particularly sensitive, this case is illustrative of the increasing level of difficulty qualitative researchers are facing in conducting not only risky research but also work that is not aligned with the National Research Council’s conception of “scientific” methodology. The author nests her story within the larger social context of surveillance and disciplinary power operating on today’s educational researchers. She focuses her attention on the complex power relations among researchers, IRBs, and arbiters of what counts as quality research.
