This annotated bibliography explores collective data analysis, emphasizing narrative approaches and feminist methodologies.
This annotated bibliography is aimed at those new to the Many Minds approach to collective data analysis, wishing to understand its history and influence. We present a conceptual map, distinguishing three key bodies of work/fields, including: psychoanalytically informed group seminars; narrative approaches to sharing and reusing data; and collaborative group-based data analysis associated with feminist methodologies. Starting at the centre of a Venn diagram of overlapping circles we focus attention on key readings that connect all three approaches before moving out to each of the circles to provide examples of significant publications. Annotations are both descriptive and evaluative and sometimes also personal. The list is neither exhaustive nor definitive but is offered as a shared resource for those interested in learning more about the approach and the traditions on which it builds.
