Book Review Alison J.Chrisler: Humanizing Research

Alison J. Chrisler writes an excellent review of thebook, Humanizing Research: Decolonizing Qualitative Inquiry With Youth and Communities,highlighting the difficulties of conducting research with vulnerable participants. She write, "Far too often, researchers "take" the lived experiences of participants with little concern about what the individuals in their studies will receive in return" (Chrisler, 2015, p. 333). This lack of attention given to the participant's well-being becomes increasingly problematic as many studies focus on intrusive topics of marginalized groups.
