“…There have been a number of studies that discussed the use of photovoice with older persons in different research contexts (Baker and Wang, 2006; Blair and Minkler, 2009; Andonian and MacRae, 2011; Mahmood et al ., 2012; Annear et al ., 2014; Chan et al ., 2016; Lewinson and Esnard, 2015). One review discussed general literature on this approach in public health (Catalani and Minkler, 2010).…”

AbstractFor a long time researchers have used photography for different purposes, in different ways and with different focus. Photovoice is a qualitative visual research method that refers to photographs taken by the participants themselves. It has been used with different age groups and populations. The use of photovoice in older populations requires its own study of approaches, techniques and challenges. In this article, we review existing studies using photovoice with older participants specifically, to consider its potential as a qualitative research method in the field of gerontology. We discuss advantages and limitations of the method in gerontological research and provide guidelines for future studies. Our results show that photovoice has been used to study a wide range of topics in older people, from health issues and the impact of environment on health and wellbeing, to leisure experiences of groups living with HIV/AIDS. Using photovoice helps researchers to capture live experiences and perceptions of older persons and conduct engaging, involving and empowering research facilitating interaction, reflection and connection of participants. However, conducting photovoice studies can be practically challenging, such as when addressing special needs of the participants, or ethical and other feasibility issues. To conclude, photovoice has great potential for being used in gerontological research, it can be altered to fit specific goals, divergent issues studied and different research contexts.

“…Visual research methods are social science data collection and participant collaboration techniques that prioritize the generation, use, and analysis of visual materials (Annear et al 2014). Visual methodology is grounded in the belief that “valid scientific insight in society can be acquired by observing, analyzing, and theorizing its visual manifestations: behaviors of people and material products of culture” (Pauwels 2010, 546).…”

Video vignettes are information-rich stimuli using audio and visual presentations to elicit viewer responses. Though rarely used in tourism research, messages delivered via video vignettes are arguably more engaging and realistic than written vignettes. This paper aims to develop clear guidelines for producing video vignettes and evaluating such efforts. A rigorous four-step procedure for producing authentic and valid video vignettes is created and implemented. The examined context involves an exploration of stereotypes shared by Hong Kong residents of Mainland Chinese tourists. A total of 10 video vignettes are developed and used as stimuli in 26 semi-structured interviews. Qualitative and quantitative appraisals are conducted to create and test the protocol and quality indicators. Recommendations are made based on the lessons learned from the validation process. The path toward the creation of video vignettes can provide directions for other tourism research inquiries, such as tourist interactions, embodied experiences, and mutual gaze.

“…Active leisure refers to the performance of an activity which requires moderately intense physical exertion. It is undertaken during an individual's discretionary time and perceived by the individual as either beneficial or enjoyable (Annear et al, 2014;Beaton & Funk, 2008). 3.…”

To be or not to be: negotiating leisure constraints with technology and data analytics amid the COVID-19 pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic is having an unprecedented impact on the leisure industry. Mandatory directives such as social distancing and stay-at-home /shelter-in-place orders reduce disease transmission and protect the health and well-being of the public. However, such strategies might impair active leisure participation. We identify challenges and constraints of engaging in active leisure activities during the pandemic and explore how the general public can use technology and big data analytics to negotiate constraints during this uncertain time. Creative applications of big data analytics demonstrate that negotiating active leisure constraints and battling the pandemic are not contradictory goals. We recommend society to harness the power of these data-driven tools to effectively navigate interpersonal, structural, and intrapersonal constraints to active leisure while improving the efficiency with which we combat the spread of COVID-19.
