Abstract
Heuristic, autoethnographic, or other biographical approaches to doctoral research allow for a deeper understanding of self in context of a phenomenon experienced by the self-as-subject and the greater understanding of others, society, and culture. This chapter presents current research insights into data collection processes used for self-as-subject research at the doctoral level. Illustrations of the variety of data sources used for both heuristic research and autoethnography are presented as well as insights and recommendations from method experts are included.
