摘要

本文反映了在一个大型城市公园中统计体育活动的实践,并将其作为一种社会研究方法。本文以我笔记本中的一页表格数字为出发点,讨论了这种定量方法如何帮助我进行定性调查。文章讨论了这一方法的优缺点,并对地理学家和城市学者如何将计数作为其研究实践的常规部分进行了反思。通过打开我的笔记本,我反思了在调查繁忙的城市空间时,我作为研究者是如何收集证据的,以及它是如何帮助我在将公园概念化为社会基础设施的过程中,理解一个使用率很高的公园的社会生活的。

Counting in qualitative fieldwork: Notes from a large urban park

Counting in qualitative fieldwork: Notes from a large urban park

This paper reflects on the practice of counting physical activity in a large urban park as a social research method. Using a page of tabulated numbers from inside my notebook as a launching off point, it discusses how this quantitative method aided my qualitative inquiry. It discusses some of the strengths and weaknesses of the method as well as offering a reflection on how geographers and urban scholars might use counting as a regular part of their research practice. By opening up my notebook I reflect on how I went about assembling evidence as a researcher in my investigation of a busy urban space, and how it helped me to understand the social life of a well-used park in situ as I developed an argument about conceptualising parks as social infrastructures.
