Learning from the mess in social media elicitation interviews – new paper alert!
Really happy to have been a small part of this new paper in Qualitative Inquiry, called 'Learning from the mess in social media elicitation interviews.' It's available open access here: and this is the abstract: The article examines what happened during 50 semi-structured interviews that were designed to focus on the visual content of interviewees’ social media feeds. During these encounters, interviewees were invited to talk about content that appeared on their social media apps while showing their phone screens to the interviewer.
