Abstract

This paper reports the experiences of working with a group of disabled young people over a 12-month period, during which perspectives of subjective well-being were explored. Methodological experiences, and particularly strategies which facilitated accessing young people's views, are described. The paper then moves on to focusing on the challenges and dilemmas of taking a participative approach. These experiences are contextualised within wider debates on participative approaches in social research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
