Layered Account
A layered account refers to a specific approach within qualitative social research where the researcher adopts multiple perspectives and incorporates different layers of consciousness in their writing. This concept, initially introduced by Carol Rambo Ronai, intentionally blurs the boundaries between social research and art. In a layered account, the researcher goes beyond presenting a single narrative or viewpoint and instead incorporates diverse voices, experiences, and perspectives into their work. By doing so, they aim to provide a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of the subject matter being studied. This approach acknowledges the complex and subjective nature of social phenomena, emphasizing the importance of incorporating multiple perspectives to gain a deeper insight into the research topic.

Qualitative Research
Qualitative research is a type of research that aims to gather and analyse non-numerical (descriptive) data in order to gain an understanding of individuals' social reality, including understanding their attitudes, beliefs, and motivation. This type of research typically involves in-depth interviews, focus groups, or observations in order to collect data that is rich in detail and context. Qualitative research is often used to explore complex phenomena or to gain insight into people's experiences and perspectives on a particular topic.
