“…In order to understand the emotional experiences of BCDs, we draw on aspects of AE, which is a form of ethnographic inquiry, “that seeks to describe and systematically analyze personal experience in order to understand cultural experience” (Ellis, Adams, and Bochner 2011). In other words, AE has the ability to take individual experiences and situated them within a larger social context (Aubrey et al 2008; Boyle and Parry 2007).…”

“…This is not an unusual characteristic given that work, organizations, and jobs are gendered (Acker 1990; Rubery 2019). However, this reality influences the way people “perform” emotions in the workplace and varies based on gender dynamics and power differentials (Aubrey et al 2008). As such, gender differences in expectations of emotion have emerged.…”

Course administrators hold a unique position in academe—one that requires high levels of emotion management as part of the job. This research utilized a collaborative autoethnography to explore how workplace emotions were experienced in the basic communication course. The experiences were presented through vignettes written and analyzed by seven course administrators from programs across the United States. Four themes emerged from the vignettes: (1) acting perpetually positive, (2) (un)catching emotion, (3) rushing for time, and (4) switching roles. Each theme highlighted the multiple, and sometimes competing, responsibilities/expectations embedded in the administrative role. This research offers a discussion of each theme and informs five recommendations for managing emotions and emotional labor within course administration.

“…Second, pregnancy is a health experience indicated by a unique physical change in a woman's body. Like other visual 'marks' (Goffman, 1963), this visual cue might prompt communication about pregnancy that reflects the social group's prevailing values and beliefs about pregnancy (Aubrey et al, 2008).…”

“…We took a multivocal approach that combined both of the researchers’ experiences, perspectives, and emotions in a complex and layered way that creates a sort of meta-autoethnography (Ellis et al 2017). The multivocality is one of the strengths of CAE as it illuminates points of convergence and divergence in people’s recounted stories (Anderson et al 2019; Aubrey et al 2008).…”

There are a variety of ethical situations that qualitative communication researchers must navigate. This point is especially true when the research involves close personal contacts, such as friends and family members. In order to problematize the ethical frameworks that guide qualitative inquiry and illuminate the complexities of relational ethics, we—the authors—reflected on our past experiences engaging in research with close personal contacts. Specifically, we took a collaborative autoethnographic approach that involved sharing personal stories, drafting autoethnographic narratives, and engaging in individual and collaborative sensemaking. In doing so, we highlight the following three quandaries specific to conducting research with close personal contacts: (1) challenging/affirming identity anchors, (2) challenging/affirming power relations, and (3) challenging/affirming ownership. We explicate each of these themes using autoethnographic vignettes and conclude by offering five lessons learned of relational ethics, which are organized using the phases of qualitative research: conceptualization and design, data collection, and representation.
