Abstract
Qualitative researchers are required to be critically reflective and explain to readers of their own positionality on their work. This account can be relatively straightforward, but there are occasions this process of reflection and outlining one’s positionality is much more complicated. This methods paper explains this process and outlines, using seven examples of different occasions and situations where and why such complications may arise, for example around values and personal experiences. It finishes with some more practical advice on writing the section on positionality for budding social scientists.
