The aim of this paper is to report on how semi-structured interviews were purposefully adapted to ensure that participants living with cerebral palsy, who primarily communicate through alternative, including non-verbal, means, were able to contribute their lived experiences of flying to a wider research project exploring accessible aviation. In so doing, the paper proposes a <em>paramethodological</em> approach to transport research in which interviewees ‘come alongside’ researchers to create more flexible, equitable and accessible methods and methodologies to ensure the experiences and expertise of all groups, including those often marginalised from mainstream transport research, are included.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47838,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Transport & Health","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 102150"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144826963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
