Revisiting positionality through intersectional identities
Parent and child research has made important contributions to literacy research and advanced research methodologies in studying linguistically diverse families. Positionality has been a cornerstone concept in ethnographic research and often referenced in parent and child studies. In this article, I present a review of the literature on parent and child research published between 2010 and 2021 to explore matters of positionality. The data consist …

Parental Perceptions of Learning Disabilities
The research presented in this article analyses 242 written responses to interview questions conducted with families who live in the United States to explore parental perceptions of disabilities. The data were analyzed through a case study methodology and discourse analysis. Findings from this study illustrate how parents drew upon both medical metaphors and sociocultural factors to discuss their perceptions of their or their children’s perceived…
Metatheoretical Differences between Running Records and Miscue Analysis
The purpose of this article is to examine the metatheoretical differences that impact how runningrecords and miscue analysis differ in (a) the quantification of readers’ produced responses totext and (b) the analysis of oral reading behaviors. After providing historical and metatheoretical overviews of both procedures, we present the data source, which included 74 records of oral readings from an extant data set collected from an informal reading…
The Social Construction of a Reading (Dis)Ability
This article highlights one mother–son case study that was part of a larger study, Revaluing Readers and Families (Kabuto, , ). Here the author focuses on how the mother, Terry, interpreted her 7‐year‐old son Peter's oral reading performances and how her interpretation led her to construct a label around a reading disability. Study data include interviews, observations of parent–child interactions, oral readings and retellings, and family retrosp…
Bilingual Writing as an Act of Identity
This article explores early bilingual script writing as an act of identity. Using multiple theoretical perspectives related to social semiotics and social constructivist perspectives on identity and writing, the research presented in this article is based on a case study of an early biliterate learner of Japanese and English from the ages of 3–7. Through the analysis of multiple data sources, this research seeks to understand how Emma authored he…
Parent-research as a process of inquiry
This article illustrates how an ethnographic perspective can provide a descriptive methodological approach to parent-research as a process of inquiry within the field of education. By juxtaposing data and illuminating reflexive accounts from a longitudinal parent-research study, I suggest that such a perspective provides critical insights into the roles of subjectivities, reflexivity, and positionality as mutually constitutive of each other as th…
