ABSTRACT

You are the researcher. As such, your voice will always be present in the project. We are often encouraged to think of research as figuring out the unbiased truth of a question from a population. However, you are an important part of the research because you are the person, or one of the people, asking the questions, as well as the person analyzing the data and developing it into a narrative that will be presented to others. And that is not necessarily a bad thing. But we have to consider the ways in which you will be affecting the research and how you, or you and your research colleagues, can present those decisions within the research. We have to consider the place of the You voice in the multilogical dialogue of research.
