摘要

ContextNarrative research, an inclusive term for a range of methodologies, has rapidly become part of medical education scholarship. ConceptsIn this paper we identify narrative inquiry as a particular theoretical and methodological framework within narrative research and outline its characteristics. We briefly summarise how narrative research has been used in studying medical learners' identity making in medical education. Uses of narrative inquiryWe then turn to the uses of narrative inquiry in studying medical learners' professional identity making. With the turn to narrative inquiry, the shift is to thinking with stories instead of about stories. ConclusionsWe highlight four challenges in engaging in narrative inquiry in medical education and point toward promising future research and practice possibilities.
