520 _aAs she was working on a psycho-sociological research project, the author analyzed her own implication. The subject she was investigating was « parenthood » and more specifically the relationship between a hearing parent and a deaf child. Being herself, the hearing parent of a deaf child, she understood her singular position as a redefinition of the traditional division between : expert/lay, objective/subjective, observer subject/observed object, rationality/true-life experiences.Regarding the dynamics between separation and encounter such as it appears in research methodology and in the field of handicap, she analyzed the reactions found among researchers to her situation as an « in-between » : prohibition vs. incitement to do research in « parenthood and handicap ». She also studied her own response (opposition or agreement) to these reactions and she considered these interactions as an integral part of her research project. She reflects about the relationship between the implication of a researcher, his/her neutrality and his/her active commitment to work within the context of the social and behavioural sciences.
