The primary goal of developing this model will be to facilitate the characterization of tools and standards for digital linguistic resources with respect to the entire documentary and descriptive process in order to (i) help researchers avoid duplicating the work of others unnecessarily and (ii) ensure that linguistics, as a discipline, does not accidentally focus on particularly salient domain...

Much of the work that is labeled ‘descriptive’ within linguistics comprises two activities, i.e. the collection of primary data and a (low-level) analysis of these data. These are indeed two separate activities as shown by the fact that the methods employed in each activity differ substantially. To date, the field concerned with the first activity — called ‘documentary linguistics’ here — has r...

Conducting fieldwork frequently sparks ethical challenges as researcher and environment clash. This paper seeks to address these challenges, using documentary and ethnography methodologies as a lens to illuminate different ways of thinking about fieldwork ethics. In line with its more qualitative nature, this paper will accomplish its task via meta-analysis and historiography, analyzing past te...

THIS REVIEW is divided into two sections; the first is purely historical, and the second documentary and descriptive in its treatment of modem histochemical methods. Examples of the employment of such methods are given in the second section immediately following the methods to which they refer. The word " modern," in respect of any particular method, refers to usage rather than to origin; never...

METHODS We recruited men aged 18 years or over who were not at risk of suicide to participate in a double-blind ...

Despite growing interest in video-based methods in organizational research, the use of collaborative ethnographic documentaries is rare. Organizational research could benefit from the inclusion of collaborative ethnographic documentaries to: 1) enable the participation of ‘difficult to research’ groups, 2) better access the material, embodied or sensitive dimensions of work and organizing, and ...

BACKGROUND It has been suggested that some dominant aspects of traditional masculinity are contributing to the high suicide rates among Australian men. We developed a three-episode documentary called Man Up, which explores the complex relationship between masculinity and suicide and encourages men to question socially imposed rules about what it means to be a man and asks them to open up, expre...
