“…While reflexivity has been discussed across a range of disciplines, such as philosophy (Foucalt, 1970), anthropology (Latour, 1988), sociology (Ashmore, 1989), and psychology (Clifford & Marcus, 1986) the discussion of reflexivity within consumer research has been scarce to date (Bettany & Woodruffe-Burton, 2009;Takhar & Chitakunye, 2012). In fact, the discussions of reflexivity within consumer research have tended to be around introspection (Hirschman, 1986;Holbrook, 1995;Wallendorf & Brucks, 1993), and centred on the significance of the researcher maintaining reflexivity (Bettany & Woodruffe-Burton, 2009) within the research process. While we are not arguing against this trend, we argue for an in-depth account of informants' inner voices through the use of a multiple methods approach (Takhar & Chitakunye, 2012) and by immersing informants in the research encounter and data collection phase over a longer period of time.…”
