Charlie -----Original Message----- From: air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org [mailto:air-l-bounces@listserv.aoir.org] On Behalf Of 'Gail Taylor Sent: Wednesday, December 27, 2006 9:03 AM To: air-l@listserv.aoir.org Subject: [Air-l] Phenomenographic research methodology I am currently doing a literature search to locate articles reporting the findings of phenomenographic studies of human-technology relationships. In particular, studies where the researcher had participants produce a drawing of their relationships as one of the data collection methodologies. I am doing some brainstorming on how this research methodology might be used to explore employee-technology relationships in work environments where social and technical system interactions are self-goverened or governed by policies and procedures developed and enformed by members of management. I am finding this research method is popular among researchers in the medical sciences, and looking for studies that have been conducted in other fields of practice. Any assistance and/or advice about using this research methodology would be appreciated! --------------------------------------- Gail Taylor, M.Ed.
