EspañolLa privación de libertad es un suceso que impacta los niveles de estrés y requiere estrategias de afrontamiento. En la cárcel Jorge Arturo Montero Castro de Costa Rica se implementó un proceso grupal de meditación con personas recluidas para ayudarles a sobrellevar el encarcelamiento. Para aportar evidencia científi ca sobre la efectividad de esta intervención, se realizó un estudio mixto de triangulación con modelo de convergencia. Cuantitativamente, se evaluó si la intervención generó cambios en los niveles de estrés percibido de los participantes. El diseño fue experimental con preprueba-posprueba y grupo control de lista de espera. La muestra fue de 32 hombres (16 en cada grupo). Cualitativamente, se exploró cómo infl uyó la intervención en los estilos de afrontamiento dentro del ambiente carcelario. El diseño fue un estudio de casos múltiples con muestreo intencional y se realizó una entrevista semiestructurada a cada participante del grupo de tratamiento. Además, se revisaron las consignas, los contenidos y el diseño de la intervención para evaluar su idoneidad. Los resultados cuantitativos no evidenciaron diferencias entre el grupo experimental y el grupo control; sin embargo, sobresalió la diferencia signifi cativa en la subescala cognitiva (F(1, 15) = 5.01, p = .04) entre la preprueba y la posprueba del grupo de tratamiento. En los resultados cualitativos, los participantes expresaron que con el proceso lograron utilizar estrategias como autocontrol, reevaluación positiva y distanciamiento. Sobre el diseño de la intervención, sobresalen las fortalezas; pero, se considera que la intervención puede rediseñarse al incorporar los aspectos por mejorar para maximizar los beneficios.EnglishBecause privation of liberty in jail aff ects health, a group meditation process with prisoners was implemented at the Jorge Arturo Montero Castro Institutional Care Center, in Costa Rica, to help cope with imprisonment. Due to gaps in the scientifi c approach to meditation eff ectiveness with prisoners in Costa Rica, a mixed method using convergence design and triangulation was carried out. A quantitative evaluation was made to ascertain if the meditation process generated changes in participant stress levels. A pretest–posttest experimental design with a wait-list control group was used. The sample was 32 men (16 in each group). A qualitative evaluation was made to explore how the intervention infl uenced coping in participants. Multiple case study design was used. Intentional sampling was performed, which resulted in working with 16 men of the meditation process group. Additionally, instructions, contents and design of the intervention were reviewed. Quantitatively, there were no differences between experimental group and control group on stress levels after the intervention; however, in the experimental group there was a signifi cant diff erence in the cognitive subscale (F(1, 15) = 5.01, p = .04). Qualitatively, participants expressed that they began to use strategies like self-control, positive reevaluation and taking distance from the situation. Finally, strengths were recognized in the intervention, but also that there was room for improvement in order to maximize benefi ts.

“…Though this offered comfort to the wives, the husbands may have felt bias in having an interviewer with cultural and marital experiences more closely related to their wives'. A bilingual interviewer avoided a primary concern of qualitative inquiry, interpreting and translating the native language of interviewees to English (Littig, & Pochhacker, 2014).…”

This qualitative case study sought to gain in-depth understanding of Japanese and American family unions and the intermarried couples’ acculturation processes. It explored how intermarried couples view cultural differences, and how they negotiate and compromise in conflicts caused by such differences. Qualitative interviews were conducted with four couples comprising Japanese wives and their European-American husbands residing in the Midwestern United States. Interview questions included couples’ communication style, marital expectations, and parenting, from their perspective. The study found factors such as communication style, gender role expectations, marital expectations, and parenting style, contributed to conflicts in co-parenting and communication. Further investigation including sociopolitical aspects and cultural adaptation are recommended for future research.

“…There is an ongoing challenge for social science researchers to interpret and present issues concerning the lives of research participants who are embedded in specific contextual situations, into which the researcher enters as an outsider. The challenges increase when seeking to give voice to those considered marginalized in particular socio-political contexts, and where the use of translation from one language to another is required (Littig and Pöchhacker, 2014). This often involves three parties in the process of the generation of data: researcher, interpreters, and research participants.…”

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to introduce a unique approach to accessing, interpreting, and presenting issues concerning the lives of social science research participants. It particularly focuses on accessing those considered to be economically, socially, or politically marginalized and where there is reliance upon intersubjective accounts in two languages. Design/methodology/approach – The conceptual and empirical material referred to in this paper is drawn from the author’s doctoral research of a Fair Trade case study in Malawi. The approach presented is influenced by concepts derived from postcolonial theory, grounded theory, and intersubjectivity. Findings – For the community empowerment research focus it was important to provide space to capture voices of all participants, accounting for the hierarchical socio-political context in which people were embedded. This required the use of interpreters, introducing challenges related to intersubjectivity such as recognizing and accounting for positionalities and impressions of multiple parties collaborating in the process of collecting and interpreting qualitative research material. Practical implications – Investing in trained and engaged interpreters, using pilot interviews, including participants’ data in the field research design process, and capturing marginalized voices helps a researcher to mitigate challenges related to bias and power relations. Originality/value – Recognizing inherent shortcomings related to interpreter-facilitated research and power relations, the framework presented provides a reflective and practical methodological approach for qualitative researchers.
