Master’s Series on Field Research - Interview with Professor Robert Freed Bales

Master’s Series on Field Research - Interview with Professor Robert Freed Bales (1916-2004) - Professor Emeritus, Harvard University Peter Blanck interviews Professor Robert Freed Bales about his career developing practical methods of observation under adverse conditions in the field. Professor Bales discusses the origin and development of his approach entitled SYMLOG (Systematic Multilevel Observation of Groups), the steps and challenges he faced in development, and methods of studying the dynamics of various sized group interaction. An example of an observation room for a SYMLOG group is shown and a SYMLOG kit, which allows a group to study its own dynamics without technical assistance, is described. Finally, Professor Bales reveals what he finds most fun about his work as a researcher.
