Abstract

Abstract Purpose Photovoice, a community-based participatory research strategy, allows participants to take up an active role in data collection by discussing their views and life (conditions) based on the photographs they have taken. In this methodological article, we present a case study in which photovoice was used to unravel the meaning of recovery capital. Recovery capital is an overarching concept to understand the personal, social and community resources helping people to recover. Method Seven participants in recovery from drug use and desistance from offending took photographs of their lived experiences related to recovery capital. During face-to-face interviews, these photographs were discussed, focusing on recovery capital components. Results The case study led to in-depth insights into the photographs’ meanings and stories from the point of view of the participants. Conclusion This contribution investigates the role of photovoice in expanding our understanding of recovery capital. By means of a case study we highlight the several steps taken by the researcher and the advantages and shortcomings of this method. It appears that photovoice offers great value for eliciting insights in the lived experiences of participants and for participants to grow empowerment and agency. This article hopes to inspire researchers to consider photovoice for their (future) research projects.

捕获恢复资本:利用光声解开恢复和阻力

Photovoice是一种基于社区的参与性研究策略，允许参与者根据他们拍摄的照片讨论他们的观点和生活(状况)，从而在数据收集中发挥积极作用。在这篇方法学文章中，我们提出了一个案例研究，其中photovoice被用来解开恢复资本的含义。恢复资本是一个总体概念，用来理解帮助人们恢复的个人、社会和社区资源。方法7名戒毒戒除者拍摄与戒毒资本相关的生活经历。在面对面访谈中，对这些照片进行了讨论，重点是恢复资本组成部分。结果通过案例研究，从参与者的角度对照片的意义和故事有了深入的了解。结论本文探讨了光声在扩大我们对恢复资本的理解中的作用。通过一个案例研究，我们强调了研究者采取的几个步骤以及该方法的优点和缺点。由此可见，photovoice在激发参与者的生活经验和增强参与者的能力和能动性方面提供了巨大的价值。这篇文章希望能启发研究者在他们(未来)的研究项目中考虑光声。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
