The Nature of Interpretation in Qualitative Research.
Peshkin, Alan
Educational Researcher, v29 n9 p5-9 Dec 2000
Addresses the process of interpretation from a study of the academic achievements of Native American high school students in New Mexico, illuminating the relationship of researcher subjectivity to the many decision points that each process of interpretation embodies. The article also contains a counterpoint of problematics that reveals where alternative interpretive decisions could have been made. (SM)
