There are no other books on the market that deal directly with the
issues of Visual Research, Academic Freedom, and Institutional Review
Boards. Below is a list of recent texts on Visual Research:
This chapter will begin by create a composite from the several cases of
particularly egregious example of mistreatment at the hands of an IRB.
The examples will serve to show the sever limitations on academic
freedoms and innovations in research. The second part of the chapter
should be a brief and succinct account of the parts and chapters to
follow.
Abstract: This paper provides a critique of the way IRBs can maintain
the marginalization of ‘vulnerable’ populations through an insistence
on anonymity that can run counter to a group’s desire to choose how
to represent themselves. I explore the relationship between anonymity
and risks and benefits in a discussion of my own experience
negotiating with an IRB over a proposed participatory action research
project that involved youth in the production of a documentary video.
Abstract: Recent articles have asserted that the growing power of IRBs
to regulate and control social science and humanities research is
especially worrisome for qualitative researchers employing innovative
methodologies or operating within critical paradigms. This chapter
reflects on the findings of a survey which gathered the experiences of
visual researchers and their IRB experiences. It asked these
researchers for suggestions on how to improve the process. Questions
regarding the type of visual method employed, population studied,
funding for the projects, and reaction of IRBs (expedited vs. full-board
approval, revisions, and rejection) were addressed. In particular
respondents were asked to specify the elements of their IRB
applications that helped to win approval and those elements which
slowed down or even prevented the approval from their local IRBs.
