Yarning/Aboriginal storytelling: Towards an understanding of an Indigenous perspective and its implications for research practice

Abstract: There is increasing recognition of Indigenous perspectives from various parts of the world in relation to storytelling, research and its effects on practice. The recent emergence of storytelling or yarning as a research method in Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island studies and other Indigenous peoples of the world is gaining momentum. Narratives, stories, storytelling and yarning are emerging methods in research and has wide ranging potential to shape conventional research discourse making research … Show more

“…Additionally, several articles reinforced the importance of including Indigenous Peoples in the research process (i.e., in data collection and/or analysis) (Cameron et al, 2014;Dennis, 2014;Evans et al, 2009;Geia, 2013;Helps & Barclay, 2015;Nakamura, 2013;Russell-Mundine, 2007). Authors that specifically utilized an Indigenous mixed methods approach noted the main benefit was having an opportunity to include marginalized voices in the research (Botha, 2012;Chilisa & Tsheko, 2014;Hill et al, 2010).…”

“…Relationality is inherent in storytelling and this component can help to ensure that the participants are respected as equal partners in the uncovering of knowledge (DyllMykelbust, 2014). Yarning is also helpful in decolonizing the research process and removing the power imbalance inherent in the researcher-subject relationship (Geia et al, 2013). Careful listening is inherent in yarning, as one should be fully engaged in the conversation at hand (Russell-Mundine, 2007).…”

“…The dialogue was conducted over 4 hours by AR (a non-Aboriginal, tertiary qualified, health practitioner) and AM (a remote Aboriginal, tertiary qualified, organisational leader) with at least one interpreter present at all times. The dialogue used the technique of 'yarning' advocated by several authors [17][18][19] as a method for successfully establishing, progressing and completing interviews with Aboriginal participants.…”

“…Further, it has participant and community credibility, something not normally associated with more traditional research methods in which First Peoples find themselves with little connection except as suppliers of raw data (Fredericks et al 2011). Use of a yarning process has a capacity to build relationships that could reduce the level of generalised distrust First Peoples have developed towards researchers, which benefits communities, participants and researchers (Dean 2010;Geia et al 2013;Martin 2008). Yarning also provides a professional and personal development opportunity for First Peoples and non-Indigenous researchers (Durie 2005).…”
