Ethnographic field stations.
Ethnographic field stations are not a substitute for traditional ethnography, because they provide an "unnatural" setting for research interaction and observation to take place. However, they do provide perhaps the optimal setting for qualitative and quantitative methodologies to be undertaken in a single research effort. In this sense, they are critically important for advancing our knowledge about drug abusers and their behaviors.
