Carini (1975) is here articulating the interdependence between the observer and what is observed. Prior to data collection, the fieldworker plans and strategizes about the hoped-for and expected nature of that interdependence. But things don’t always unfold as planned, so observers must make an effort to observe themselves observing and record the effects of their observations on the people observed and, no less important, reflect on changes they’ve experienced from having been in the setting. This means being able to balance observation with reflection and manage the tension between engagement and detachment.
