QSIG Midday Talk: “I think that’s just confirmation bias”: A worked case example of reflexive thematic analysis from a survivor standpoint

This workshop will explore a methodological paper critically exploring how a LE perspective can be intertwined throughout the data analytical process to create knowledge that works towards centralising a subjectivist position, as with Big 'Q' approaches. The workshop further discusses the central tenets of a survivor paradigm, and how we can work towards being reflexive during data analysis.

Caroline C. Da Cunha Lewin (she/they) is a lived experience researcher and general nurse undertaking their doctorate in Health Service and Population Research, specialising in self-harm. Her work specifically uses qualitative methodology to consider the lived experience interpretation of self-harm.
