Reflexivity is a popular tool used to analyse personal,

It enables researchers, particularly within the qualitative

different stages of the research process. The editors and
contributors offer candid approaches to the subject, which supply
readers with diverse strategies on how to do reflexivity in
practice.

processes, methods and outcomes
