Reflexivity and the capacity to think. (2012)
Journal Article
Doyle, S. (2013). Reflexivity and the capacity to think. Qualitative Health Research, 23(2), 248-255. https://doi.org/10.1177/1049732312467854

Reflexivity is fundamental to qualitative health research, yet notoriously difficult to unpack. Drawing on Wilfred Bion’s work on the development of the capacity to think and to learn, I show how the capacity to think is an impermanent and fallible c...
