Abstract

Realist interviews are a data collection method used in realist evaluations. There is little available guidance for realist interviewing in cross-cultural contexts. Few published realist evaluations have included cross-cultural interviews, providing limited analyses of the cross-cultural application of realist methodology. This study integrated realist and cross-cultural qualitative methods in a realist evaluation of an Australian doula support program. The interviews were conducted with Arabic speaking clients of the program. The process included collaboration with a bicultural researcher, philosophically situating the study for methodologically coherent integration, bicultural review of the appropriateness of realist ‘how’ and ‘why’ questions, decisions about language translation and interpretation, pilot interviews, and co-facilitation of the interviews. Integration of the methods was feasible and valuable. This study may support other realist evaluators to give voice to people from culturally diverse groups, in a manner that is culturally safe, methodologically coherent and rigorous, and that produces trustworthy results.
跨文化现实主义访谈:现实主义访谈与跨文化定性研究方法的结合
现实主义访谈是一种用于现实主义评价的数据收集方法。在跨文化背景下,现实主义面试几乎没有可用的指导。发表的现实主义评价很少包括跨文化访谈,对现实主义方法论的跨文化应用进行了有限的分析。本研究将现实主义和跨文化定性方法相结合,对澳大利亚杜拉支持计划进行了现实主义评估。采访对象是该项目的阿拉伯语客户。这一过程包括与一位双文化研究人员合作,从哲学角度对研究进行定位,以实现方法上的连贯整合,对现实主义“如何”和“为什么”问题的适当性进行双文化审查,就语言翻译和口译做出决定,试点访谈,以及共同促成访谈。整合这些方法是可行的,也是有价值的。这项研究可能支持其他现实主义评估者以文化安全、方法连贯和严格的方式,为来自不同文化群体的人发声,并产生值得信赖的结果。
