Abstract

This chapter describes participant viewpoint ethnography (PVE), a video research method. PVE involves two components. First, a participant uses a wearable camera to create a video from their perspective of some activity. Second, the researcher watches the video with the participant and interviews the participant about the video. This method is useful for helping participants attend to aspects of their experience that may be innate and difficult to verbalize and gives the researcher better understanding of the embodied aspects of activities. The method is illustrated with an example from the author’s research on bike commuters and future research directions for using PVE to study mobilities in organizations are suggested.
