Reflection on recent developments in the re-use of archived interview data was initiated by drawing on the experience of working on two very different projects: 'Overseas-trained doctors and the development of geriatric medicine' and 'The oldest generation', one of the Timescapes projects. These two projects, run in parallel but independent of one another, were very different in focus, but both explored the practice of re-use. This article draws out insights acquired and lessons learned. However, by taking a longer reflective view, an engagement with secondary analysis emerges much earlier. The article draws on examples from the author's own research history, describing how re-engagement with an earlier re-user of her data reveals continuing academic controversies.

1991 interviewten Professor Margot JEFFERYS und zwei Kollegen "Pioniere der gerontologischen Medizin", unter denen sich 60 Fachärzte und Fachärztinnen für Alterskrankheiten befanden. Diese Daten sind nunmehr digital zugänglich auf CD-ROM gespeichert. Die ausführlichen Interviews befassen sich mit den Karrieren dieser Mediziner und Medizinerinnen unter Gesichtspunkten wie persönlicher Erfolg und der Fähigkeit, das vernachlässigte Gebiet der Behandlung älterer Menschen zu einem akzeptierten Arbeitsfeld der akademischen und angewandten Medizin zu entwickeln.
Die Reanalyse von Daten für unterschiedliche Zwecke ist ein immer bedeutsamer werdender methodologischer Gegenstand. Dieser Beitrag befasst sich mit ethischen und methodologischen Aspekten der Analyse von Daten, die zu einem anderen Zeitpunkt und von anderen Forschenden erhobenen wurden. Anhand des Beitrags von transatlantisch ausgebildeten Mediziner(inne)n zur Entwicklung der Gerontologie, deren Karriereentscheidungen und Erfahrungen mit kulturellen Unterschieden werden zwei unterschiedliche Ansätze – die Rekonstruktion von mündlichen Lebensgeschichten und die Analyse digitalisierter Daten – diskutiert.

This book charts the change, critically evaluating progress, take-up, inclusion and access to direct payments by different user groups. With contributions from leading campaigners, academics, practitioners, direct payment users and personal assistants, the book provides an overview of the history of direct payments; presents findings from key research into direct payments and disabled people, older people, carers, people with mental health problems, people with learning difficulties and disabled children; discusses the implementation and development of direct payments provision and compares developments in the UK with those in North America. Developments in direct payments is an important source of information for social work students and practitioners and others working in the field of health and social care. The useful, up-to-date evidence and discussions relating to care, independence and control will also be of interest to users and providers of help and support.

The turn to biographical methods in social science is yielding a rich harvest of research outcomes and invigorating the relationship between policy and practice. This book uses a range of interpretive approaches to reveal the dynamics of service users' and professionals' individual experiences and life-worlds. It shows how biographical methods can improve theoretical understanding of professional practice, as well as enrich the learning and development or professionals, and promote more meaningful and creative practitioner-service user relationships

"In their article, published in this journal, COLTART, HENWOOD and SHIRANI raise a number of issues regarding the effective and ethical conduct of qualitative secondary analysis. In doing so they seek to exemplify general points about secondary analytic practice and ethics with reference to the UK Timescapes research programme in which they were involved as primary researchers and we were involved as secondary analysts. They position our work in ways we find unrecognisable, and potentially misleading. We briefly re-describe aspects of our work, and our key arguments, with reference to the timing of secondary analysis, knowledge claims and the contextual embeddedness of qualitative data."

In their article, published in FQS, as well as in HSR 38 (2013) 4, Coltart, Henwood and Shirani raise a number of issues regarding the effective and ethical conduct of qualitative secondary analysis. In doing so they seek to exemplify general points about secondary analytic practice and ethics with reference to the UK Timescapes research programme in which they were involved as primary researchers and we were involved as secondary analysts. They position our work in ways we find unrecognisable, and potentially misleading. We briefly re-describe aspects of our work, and our key arguments, with reference to the timing of secondary analysis, knowledge claims and the contextual embeddedness of qualitative data.
