Organizer: Tracy L.M. Kennedy

This session seeks to explore some of the issues and trends that are emerging

validity using on-line research or discuss areas such as the implications of 
conducting on-line research for the methodological field. Also considered will 
be theoretical approaches to conducting Internet research.

This session seeks to unravel how gender is inscribed and reproduced in
