This paper discusses the relationship of the researcher with the theme-field, undoing the overlap between field and geographical space, to reflect on the role of the use of field diaries in intervention research. From the enactive approach to cognition, we take the notion of affect as a modulating element of the researcher's attention, which is related to the research problem, producing records of everyday aspects and their implications in the diary, which come to be perceived as part of the research theme-field. We took as object of analysis field diaries written by researchers in a research that sought to follow learning processes with a digital location-based game. We conclude that the use of the field diary accompanies and participates in the production of the researcher's attention in their participation in the theme-field, so that the researcher's memories, habits and participation of everyday contexts also make up the research, taken as a political action that intervenes in reality.

Keywords : diary; intervention research; qualitative research; methodology; field research.
