Abstract ""Hands on hips, smiles on lips ladies," the coach shouted as the girls marched up to the stage. I scribbled the sentence into the small notebook that I had brought with me to this cheerleading competition. Sometimes it's hard to know what to write down when you're doing ethnographic fieldwork; other times something like this stands out as an important detail. I am a qualitative researcher. I find people's actions fascinating and wonderfully complex. And scenes like this, scenes that feel so pertinent to an overall project, can only be captured in the social sciences by using qualitative data collection"-- Provided by publisher.
