Dear all,

I've received this inquiry re narrative research from a doctoral student in New York. It isn't my field, but I thought maybe others would have references/ideas that I could send. Can anybody help? It sounds very worthwhile doing and supporting….

"I will be  interviewing  paediatric occupational, physical and related therapists, who have been trained in infant mental health so they can work with families of disabled children in a more holistic manner. The goal is to capture the process of switching from a physical method to a psychologically inclusive style of work.

I've was advised to use narrative as a way of capturing process. I've begun the literature  review and have found some useful papers. If you can point me to some worthwhile readings, that would be great.

I've been looking at the organizational theorists because I will be analyzing the results in terms of role theory and how people negotiate roles."

If you can, can you write to me direct OFF-LIST and I'll forward your suggestions... copying a summary to the list for anybody who might be interested.

Many thanks

Tom
