Diary Methods

Author(s):  
Lauri Hyers

This book provides an overview of diary research history, design, data collection, data analysis, report writing, evaluation, and ethics. In use for about 100 years now in the social sciences, diary research methods are distinct in the qualitative canon for their mode of data collection. Diary research methods are as flexible as other qualitative methods and can be adapted to suit a variety of epistemological assumptions and research questions, types of diarists and data formats, and styles of analysis. Although diary research can seem daunting, many qualitative researchers have had great success in working with diaries as their primary data source. In this volume, the diary will first be explored historically, from its emergence as a popular cultural phenomenon to its eventual use by social science researchers. Attention will then turn to the use of archival and solicited diaries in qualitative research designs. Next, the basics of designing, analyzing, and writing qualitative diary studies will be reviewed. The volume concludes with a discussion of the strengths, weaknesses, and ethical considerations of qualitative diary research.

The purpose of this study was to describe and analyze the performance of the Regional Parliament of Palangka Raya in carrying out legislative powers and to describe and analyze the constraints that affect the Palangka Raya City DPRD in setting regional regulations. This study uses descriptive qualitative research methods. The types and sources of data chosen by researchers are primary data and secondary data. Data collection techniques used to obtain information are interviews and documentation. The results of the study show that the performance of the Palangka Raya City DPRD (DPRD) in exercising legislative power with the City of Palangka Raya government is quite good. In the period 2015 to 2017, 36 local regulations have been discussed and established. However, if it is reviewed from the proposal initiation, it can be said to be unsatisfactory, because only 9 Regional Regulations are the initiative of the Palangka Raya City DPRD. Factors that influence the performance of the DPRD of Palangka Raya City in setting regional regulations are: Human Resources, Data and Information, and Experience. The condition of Human Resources with an average Bachelor level education (21 out of 30 people) is actually a supporting factor for performance. Given that the basic education is not in line and experience that is still lacking, it becomes an obstacle to support the legislative performance of members of the Palangka Raya City DPRD.
