Abstract

This chapter is an account of how 'being-in-question' in the lived experience of questioning itself changes the shape of research inquiry. 'Being-in-question' elucidates a process for bringing to light the significance that lies beneath the research endeavour. That is, the element that drives a research undertaking forward and gives expression to its practice intentions. My aim in this chapter is to describe and offer some thoughts on the experiential learning that took place, primarily in the first half of a doctoral journey, as a non-Indigenous researcher engaged in a study of experience and meaning in caregiving, ageing and dementia with family members of an older Aboriginal person in urban New South Wales.
