Building, not burning bridges in research: Insider/outsider dilemmas and engaging with the bridge community
Open accessAbstract
Researchers navigate a complex network of relationships, positions, and responsibilities that are determined by their discipline, funding bodies, and the research community they are studying. Tensions often emerge between and across each of these different spaces. This paper uses reflexive autobiographical writing to discuss some of the ongoing challenges faced with engaging a diverse group of stakeholders in relation to sociological research on the gender inequalities of bridge as a serious leisure activity. Drawing on the researchers’ personal notes and exchanges during a project on sexism and the card game bridge, as well as the survey data from this project, this paper explores the ways that a combined team of insider/outsider researchers strive to balance the relationship and commitment they have to the pursuit of knowledge and the user community. Many projects face this balancing act which can permeate every stage of the research process and can be witnessed frequently in project meetings, yet there is still little published in relation to these conversations that take place between research team members.

The time investment allows players to reach the top of the game, to hone their craft as a player.
“The time investment allows players to reach the top of the game, to hone their craft as a player (see also Punch, 2021).”
From Blurring the Boundaries between Leisure and Work: Professionals as Devotees in the Mind-Sport Bridge (2022) · cites this paper as Punch, 2021
The ‘Insider and outsider commitment to the bridge community’ section says men may find it easier to dedicate time to serious leisure, while women face work and family constraints. The ‘Sociology of bridge’ section discusses elite players, but the passages found do not say that investing time enables players to reach the top or hone their skills. I searched for time investment, practice, skill development, and elite play; page numbers were unavailable. (LLM, conf=0.70)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
