A Mixed-Methods Scoping Review of Canadian Indigenous Research: Using an Indigenous Conversational Method to Consult Indigenous Scholars. Sage Research Methods: Diversifying and Decolonizing Research
Jimena Marquez
Sage Research Methods Cases
Since 1999, Indigenous scholars across the world have recentered research on Indigenous ways of knowing and doing. This radical change marks the decolonization of research. This new paradigm is based on the validity of Indigenous epistemologies, ontologies, and methodologies to conduct research. To appraise the recent evolution of this shifting field in Canada, I conducted a scoping review across disciplines. The goal of this review was to map out the practice of Indigenous research in Canada, and therefore, this required a rethinking of the scoping methodology. Using a mixed-methods approach, I used a Western scoping review methodology for the first five steps of the scoping process and an Indigenous conversational method for the final consultation step of the scoping process. This methodologic choice proved to be the right one because it allowed me to gather valuable insights. Furthermore, as a methodology that seeks to co-create with participants, my conversations with Indigenous scholars became an integral aspect of the analysis process. Indigenous research follows the key principles of relationality, reciprocity, respect, and accountability; therefore, the methodology used to research this field needed to be aligned or congruent with these principles. My research demonstrates that respectful collaborative Indigenous research is possible, even within a Western scoping review, because Indigenous methods foster relational accountability.
