5. Feminist research generally:

• attempts to acknowledge, respect and give voice to the totality of women's experience;
  
  
• looks for ways to integrate analysis of women's experience within the private world of the home with experience in the public sphere of the wage economy;
  
  
• attempts to synthesize, rather than fragment women's experience through the research process by, for example breaking down traditional divisions between theory and practice;
  
  
• recognizes that all research reflects certain interests and values and therefore makes it a public part of the research effort to state as clearly as possible what those interests and values are;
  
  
• is action-oriented and is directed toward providing support for efforts to move society toward greater equality and less violence;
  
  
• attempts to make its products accessible to a non-expert audience.
