Mobilized Tentative Action: How do Qualitative Research Novices Probe?
As one of the important methods to collect data in qualitative research, interview is highly generative and situational. The probing process is especially a challenge for qualitative research novices. After analyzing interview videos and students' memos in the school-level qualitative research method course for graduate students in a"double-first-class"university, this study finds that most of qualitative research novices in each cooperative research group have a certain awareness of probing in the actual interview process, try-ing to mobilize their"sense of propriety"and"sense of awareness"to grasp the opportunity of probing, and adopting "clarification" and "specification" methods to probe. However, they still reflect on their own problems on the rhythm and role of interaction, present-ing a state of tentative action in the "double action flow."Based on the above conclusions, this study discusses the issues of"horizon fusion"and "role balance"in the probing process and reflects the teaching and learning process of qualitative research methods.
