Thank you for your interest in participating in my dissertation research study on American Saddlebred horses! I am so happy you are here and want to learn more about how you can help.

 

Below are a couple resources to give you more information on my work and how it is conducted. I do mostly participatory fieldwork at horse shows, but the main bulk of my data comes from interviewing people just like you! These are generally semi-structured conversations where I ask you questions and you give me your best answers. These questions will be about general topics like riding/training your horse or building a communication system, all the way up to specific personal questions like how you individually care for your horses.
