d. autoethnography

Respuesta :

Answer: D. autoethnography

Explanation: According to Maréchal (2010), "autoethnography is a structure or technique of research which involves self-perception and reflexive investigation with regards to ethnographic field work and writing". Frances is assigned the autoethnography research method because she was to use her experiences from the meal she participated in, her thoughts and feeling about the family event to write her project.
