Photo elicitation provides new opportunities for qualitative research, enhancing connections with participants and empowering them to communicate effectively. Growing evidence supports its effective use in health research, with increasing interest in the cardiovascular community. Careful study planning and detailed reporting are crucial for strengthening the methodological approach.
Photo elicitation offers novel opportunities to augment the qualitative research toolbox. The use of photographs can enrich connections with participants, and empower them to be creative and engaged to communicate their insights, priorities, and perspectives. There is growing evidence of the effective use of photo elicitation in health research, with emerging interest in the cardiovascular community. Careful study planning, including attention to equipment, participant training, photograph selection, data collection, and ethical consideration, is essential. Detailed reporting of the study design and rationale for use of photographs, conceptual thinking underpinnings, elicitation process, and analytical plan contribute to strengthening the methodological approach.
