How can researchers avoid the inherent problem of influencing subjects while observing them? In this pioneering work, Robert Ziller examines the uses of photography and video-communication as observation techniques in the social sciences. These techniques take several forms: showing subjects a series of photographs in order to elicit attitudinal responses and asking subjects themselves to compose photographs that represent their attitudes and behaviors. Ziller thoroughly discusses the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches and outlines various research possibilities when using photo communication. In addition, practical examples are drawn from clinical psychology, intercultural communication, family studies, and criminal justice to demonstrate the overall effectiveness of this approach. The research techniques presented here will be of value to psychological researchers (both clinical and social) and a wide range of mental health clinicians.
