Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The question about my identity as a researcher and a person with visual impairment arose in all of the interviews during my research which examined the academic and social adjustment of university students with visual impairment. This question reflects the unique interaction that researchers and participants in a qualitative research study have to cope with. It was important to me that the participants would feel that I had an understanding of the experiences they discussed. As an insider I may be criticized for being too close to the research process, and as an outsider I might be blamed for not being able to reflect the experience of the participants in a valid way. I acknowledge that my own position as the outsider- insider author of this written essay is problematic. The presentation will address solutions to this dilemma. Recommendations for research practice will be derived from the analysis.
