Grounded in the intersectional principles of disability justice, this article attends to the integration of digital tools in qualitative inquiry. With a focus on the unique temporal landscapes of Disabled people, I suggest ways that digital tools can foster a more equitable, accessible, and just inquiry experience. Using personal accounts from two digital tools, I highlight the relationship between crip time and digital tools at the sites of (a) video conferencing platforms, and (b) qualitative data analysis software. This is balanced alongside scholarly debates about access friction (i.e., accommodations are not universal or stagnant) and the digital divide.
There is consensus around the value of conducting literature reviews across disciplines; however, little attention has been given to the potential(s) of engaging in a qualitative methodological literature review (QMLR). This article examines the possibilities of engaging in a QMLR by showing how it can inform qualitative research practice. After overviewing the history of literature reviews, we offer a series of questions that can inform and be integrated into a QMLR. We then demonstrate how such reviews can serve as an opportunity for qualitative inquirers to critically engage with the methodological literature with the intent of better understanding, enacting, and generating new methodological practices.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
