I'm so glad this has been helpful to you all! Please feel free to share this video with anyone who might need it. I will be publishing a book with SAGE this year on how to write a phenomenological dissertation step by step. Stay tuned!
Awesome!! I really look forward to this.
Thank you very much it really help me in designing of my doctoral dissertation... have you published your book on the subject? If yes please send me the access link. Thank you once again
I'm in for the book! Indeed, I'm writing my own book (about the phenomenon of Dollarization) and I'm using these ideas to improve it. Thanks!
Hello Dr. Peoples: Is the book out yet? I'd love to purchase it if available!
Is your book out yet? I'd like to buy it!
One of the best and concise contrasts of Husserlian vs. Heideggerian frameworks. Fantastic and thanks for sharing with the world!
I am soooo glad I found your presentation. I was out in left field with this and you put it into perspective. Thank you and keep up the great work!!
Best explanation I have found so far. Thanks!
Thank you so much for this! Your book is definitely the most accessible source to phenomenology I've come across and the video supplements the text well.
Glad to hear your presentation. Brighter my dissertation. Keep in touch...
You've made it very clear now. Thank you very much for sharing.
Very insightful, thank you for posting. I had hit a few roadblocks in my dissertation but I think I am on my way again thanks to your video.
Thank you for this video. I just heard this one yesterday when I sat down in a class and I found it very interesting.
Thank you for this video.
' not opinions but the lived experience'
Great presentation! Just starting my dissertation and jumping tracks into phenomenology. I don't have a teacher available so I am gleaning as much as I can online. Glad to have found this. Very helpful. Thanks for posting!-Jim
Thank youuu so much! I greatly appreciate this lecture. This truly helped me develop the theoretical framework of my research.
Wow! this has been super helpful, it'll help me a lot with my comprehensive exam. Thank you for making your work accessible for us.
This is a really good overview. As a trainee psychologist, many insights can be made from using this phenomenological perspective. Thank you! As others have mentioned, more focused videos in the future may be helpful for those that want to deep dive into specific philosophies.
thank you that was so easy to understand - You're a life saver
It was a nice presentation which explained the Phenomenology design in detail. I liked the elaboration of Husserl and Heidegger frameworks.
wonderful presentation on phenomenological approach in research. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for creating this!
I really enjoyed your presentation and now I am pretty sure about what I am going to do with my dissertation. Thanks.
thank you so very much for such a plainly stated video. I have a much better understanding of these two frameworks.
This was so helpful. Thank you very much!!!!! Really clearly explained. Deeply appreciated.
Thank you for putting out this video.
Thank you!! And loved the use of cats, I have one myself. I easily understood the data analysis process. More power :)
Brilliant Katarzyna! In three minutes you clarified super basic concepts that have been doing my head in. Thank you.
I'm so glad it was helpful!
This was extremely helpful!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks so much for posting this great introduction to phenomenology! I've been wading my way through Moustakas and van Manen but needed to find a simpler way of getting introduced to the topic, and your lecture is it!
I'm so glad it was helpful!
OMG, thank you! Now it all makes sense.
The book is great! Thank you for this as well.
I know this was years ago, by my gosh! Lightbulb has come on!!! Make so much sense now and how to correctly update my chapter 3 and conduct my procedures. Thank you for explaining this so well! Subscribed!
you are so welcome! Glad it was helpful to you.
Thank you for the presentation. I purchased your book several months of ago and have read through it for a complete understanding. Now I am reading through it chapter by chapter to use as a guide as I write my Chapters 1-3. I was trying to decided if which type of research I am doing and was listening to RUclips videos when your video was populated into my feed! Super excited! I appreciate your book and this presentation and feel I have a clear understanding of my direction. Thank you again.
I'm so glad!!!
You, Katarzyna, are my hero today! You saved me from a lot of confusion, stress, and doubt and also from my teachers' incompetence and stupidity. Massive thank you :)
I'm so glad!
Thank you for this presentation.
Great video. Thanks for posting.
THIS has been super helpful! It confirms my desire to do a phenomenological study! I think your example of a counselor in a rural area makes sense for my own topic. I can also now articulate the difference between the two philosophies and why I chose Heidegger. THANK YOU!
I'm so glad it was helpful to you. Thank you for the feedback.
Thanks for your work!
Very interesting and clear video. I hope you will put out more content in the future
Thank you for this information.
Loved the explanation. And super like for George
absolutely brilliant - so very clear and insightful. please do more of these - as there is a lot of rubbish on youtube that is claiming to give insightful info on methodologies and philospohical background to qualtitative approaches.
I sure will. If there are any topics or questions you might have, let me know. I will put a video together just as soon as I can.

I start my prospectus at the mid-summer. I am doing a Phenomenological dissertation. This is very helpful.
I'm so glad!
Hey, this was so helpful and interesting! Thanks a bunch!
I'm so glad! You are very welcome.
Heidegger's Hermeneutic Circle seems to be no more than the earlier alchemical idea of solve et coagulam - i.e. breaking an object down into its constituent parts, then putting it back together to understand how it functions as a whole.
cool vid Kat!
thank you :)
Has your book come out yet? This video is one of the least confusing videos I have seen making phenomenology much easier to comprehend. I cannot wait to read the book.

This was extremely helpful. I would really like to see more presentations by you.
Thank you! I will work on it. What topics would you like to see covered?
I would be very interested in understanding more about types of bias and limitations in phenomenological research. Also, descriptions of the various types of analysis e.g. thematic analysis-vs-IPA. Thank you very much.

Very good presentation, Understood some fundamental points, and main framework. I thought you will discuss all the sections and related issues of a dissertation.....look at the title, 'how to write a phenomenological Dissertation'. I love the way you explain and your examples.
you may find my book helpful. All the steps are there for writing your dissertation www.amazon.com/gp/product/1544328362?pf_rd_p=ab873d20-a0ca-439b-ac45-cd78f07a84d8&pf_rd_r=7BSDQ32JB7VWA3YJD0RF
Additional framework- Vedantic lens
With Heidegger's Hermeneutic model.
Thanks so much for this elaborate explanation. I'm working on transitional experiences of newly qualified nurses from classroom to practice. I'm a nurse myself and have experienced the transitions too. I need help in deciding which of the two (Husserl/Heidergger) to use...
It's really about what speaks to you as a researcher. Either is appropriate.
Here is a presentation I did that gives more detail for all chapters of the dissertation. I hope it's helpful to you. I will also add this to the pinned comments. ruclips.net/video/xDTQnBfAG-o/видео.html
Good morning Dr.Peoples ,thank you so much for this wonderful video.If i may ask when this video was first shown in RUclips .Thanks .
hey there Claribeth. It was first uploaded on May 7, 2017.
Thank you Dr Peoples for a very much for your insightful video that has made phenomenology more approachable. I have also purchased your book which is very useful indeed. I am just starting my Master's dissertation looking into teachers' experiences of school leadership during Covid-19 and I have some questions about the theoretical framework that I keep coming back to. I am also a teacher who has taught through Covid-19 and I had intended to use Husserl's approach because I was interested in focusing on teachers' experiences rather than including reference to my own experience. I thought this was suitable and I am aware that the theoretical framework can then only be phenomenological without mention of other theories or concepts. Whilst I would like to follow a transcendental approach, I am concerned about not using a theoretical framework or including concepts that are relevant to my field (education). However, on reading a number of dissertations from other students who have specifically referred to their work as transcendental phenomenological research, I find that they do use a theoretical and or conceptual framework. I.e their work has been guided, influenced or framed in some way by the use of their framework. Does this mean their phenomenology research has not followed the approach correctly?
The theoretical framework for a phenomenological dissertation is phenomenology. So in transcendental phenomenological research, the theoretical framework is Husserl's transcendental phenomenology. Any additional theory makes is a hybrid study. Since Husserl theorizes that one must suspend understandings in order to get to the essence of a phenomenon, an additional framework would defeat that purpose. So I would say yes, the approach is not followed correctly to Husserl's philosophy if an additional framework is used. However, researchers can use components of Husserl and create a new kind of method. It is not pure transcendental phenomenological research but something else.
@@drkatpeoples ma'm. This is what I am trying to do. Use certain elements from Husserl and combine with Heiddgger's Herm. Method.
This is so great! Thank you for a great presentation. I am looking to explore the experience of growing up with a parent/s with disability using a family resilience framework and hermeneutic phenomenology. Would that work? Thank you so much! Just purchased your book :)
yes, absolutely. Just be sure to explain how you will you family resilience as a lens within hermeneutic phenomenology.
Thank you ever so much for this wonderful presentation! Can you possibly suggest which of these two approaches would fit a phenomenological study into lived experiences of international medical students?
Either would work. The approach depends on what YOU believe about understanding phenomena as the researcher.
Lived experience, not opinions or thoughts or on the experience.
Phenomenological framework: Husserl (transcendental) // Heidegger (hermeneutical)
Do you have a video with just Heidegger? This comparison is good for basic study, but I would like a focused version of hermeneutic phenomenology.
I haven't made a video on that yet, but I will work on it. You can get more detail on Heidegger in my book, however. I address in more detail.
Thank you so much! This is a great presentation and helps to make sense of what I've been reading. I do have question...If one wanted to use van Manen's approach, would you first use the Heidegger Philosophical Framework and then use van Manen's approach?
Max van Manen’s method is grounded in many philosophers within the phenomenological tradition and is not exceedingly driven by specific techniques. You could absolutely use Heidegger's philosophy as your theoretical framework and use van Manen's method within Heideggerian theory. van Manen has a great website that demonstrates the different ways you could go (www.phenomenologyonline.com/) and some great resources there too.
@@drkatpeoples Thank you so much for your response. It means a lot! Have you published the book you mentioned?
@@thehandmaidhome It will be out this year, October maybe.
I've watched the video several times. I've ordered and waiting on your book to arrive this week. I am working on Chapter 3 and had the awesome opportunity to have Dr. Rodger Broome as a professor during my second year of my doctoral journey, who had Giorgi as his mentor. I also saw he recently published an article about your work.
Reviewing the phenomenology blog and other dissertations, I find mostly Husserl's philosophy and the descriptive theory based on Giorgi's work. However, based on my understanding from your video, I am thinking Heidegger's philosophy relates more to my own philosophy. Have you found one philosophy more respected than the other in the world of phenomenology?
Both are very respected philosophers, and whichever you choose should align with your understanding and stance on studying phenomena.
Is it possible to make a Phenomenological Research about the learning experience of students while performing a task? The teacher will be the researcher as well. And what is more appropriate phenomenological framework in this situation?
Hi,
Great video, it really clearly explains the two theories.
I just wanted to ask a question about the Husserl example of the cats- you had 5 cats; 1 without fur, 1 without a tail and 1 without claws- why was it that only the claws was accepted as a feature of cats based on the majority but fur and tails werent? Surely as a stranger in a strange land- we would not have the preconception that cats could be declawed? If the reasoning were that something must have happened to George for him to not fit majority, could it be that something happened to the tail and fur of the other cats for them not to fit the majority, thus increasing the scope of criteria in Husserl's understanding?
Yes, such a great question! Well, George still had back claws so there would maybe be more investigation about the claw phenomenon in the study, which a stranger in a strange land may find out about the declawing feature in our society and find an "aha" moment of now knowing that indeed, all cats naturally have claws, and George was declawed yet still falls into the clawed category of cats. If he had all his claws declawed, a phenomenologist would probably still find out about cat culture here and find out about declawing, I would think...if this said stranger is a good researcher.
This is the discussion I was looking for. You made my understanding on phenomenological method clearer. Thank you very much. I have a question.
Is there any possibility to keep a theoretical framework whilst keeping phenomenological framework in a research?
if someone knows please answer
Hey @Rev Up,
I think your question may need some revision. My guess is that English isn't your first language by reading this, however I believe you're asking something along the lines of:
"Is it possible to keep both phenomenological methodology as my framework, whilst introducing a new theoretical framework during a research project?"
The answer in this case is yes, however there are some clauses. Not all types of phenomenology are compatible with other research methods - such as Transcendental. If this is your first phenomenological research project, I would avoid adding in large amounts of theoretical frames / lenses until you have a strong understanding of all the frameworks you're utilising. That being said, there are further types of phenomenology that you can utilise. including:
Transcendental Constitutive Phenomenology
(Husserl)
Studies how objects are constituted in pure or transcendental consciousness.
Naturalistic Constitutive Phenomenology
How consciousness takes in the world of nature.
Existential Phenomenology
Studies concrete human existence.
Generative Historicist Phenomenology
Studies how meaning is generated in historical processes of collective experience over time.
Genetic Phenomenology
Studies the genesis of meanings of things.
Hermeneutic Phenomenology
(Heidegger)
Studies interpretive structures of experience.
Realistic Phenomenology
Studies the structure of consciousness, assuming a real world.
If any of these resonate with you, I would choose to utilise one of these as your initial framework, and only introduce another if it is completely necessary. I hope this helps!
@@dougshaw4471 Thank you very much. Your answer is really helpful.
Among all these types, Hermeneutic phenomenology (Heidegger) is appropriate for my study as it ideally concerns interpretative structure of experience. My research is about mindfulness practices in different settings.
Yes, according to the nature of my research project, introducing another theoretical framework (better to say conceptual framework) is essential.
You may kindly reply if there is still a misunderstanding.
Thank you again Doug Shaw.
Yes, you can use add a theoretical framework if you use Heidegger's phenomenology as the primary framework.
Very informative. I am applying to a Ph.D. program in literacy education and I'm thinking of using phenomenology as my approach. I did have a question about Husserl: isn't "bracketing" considered a type of revision, similar to the Hermeneutic Cycle? I would imagine if you set aside certain information that you are unfamiliar with then analyze that information later in conjunction with the already understood phenomena, then you would in fact have a new perspective once you were able to comprehend what that bracketed information was. Or do you simply bracket unfamiliar information and never re-evaluate it?
bracketing your understandings and biases means they are irrelevant. You question and seek to understand the data as it is presented as if you have no understanding of any concepts coming to you. There is no re-evaluation of bracketed understandings at any point. The data is the only information, and your understanding is set aside too look at it with eyes that seek to understand what is presented without any suppositions of your own.
@@drkatpeoples Thanks for the clarification.
Hello there!! First of all, thank you for this presentation, I'm more involved on how to conduct my research. I'm working with English teachers experiences during the pandemic, and it's been hard for me to define the constructs. I didn't find the book you wrote was pinned. I would like to know if any of you can share something I can take into account for the theoretical framework (about Heidegger's theory) and data analysis for my research. Thanks a lot!!

Okay another thing does noesis and noema fit the schema of signifier and signified/referent?
no, those are different concepts. Schema is a concept of something while the referent is that actual something. Noesis means to think about and Noema is the thing that is thought about.
I feel obliged to pay my thanks for your presentation. While I'm not writing a dissertation, I am having to write a qualitative paper using this technique. Your simple and easy metaphor to describe something complicated was very useful! In your opinion, if I was to research students experiences of learning phenomenon that I created myself, which philosophical approach should I use? I'm interested in how the students experience this very rare and unique curriculum from their perspective. However, I built the curriculum. How should I broach this in the paper in the most academically appropriate way?
I'm taking a guess, but would think it would best fit in the Heidegger Framework.
Using a hermeneutic approach (Heidegger) would be most appropriate for something like that since you are immersed in the information and it would be difficult to bracket (yet possible if you chose Husserl). You could journal about how your biases and preconceptions change through the process of what you might think students would have discussed and the information that you actually received.
Annette Harris yes, good guess!
Hi Kailla, great presentation. Very helpful too! Please advise; is the book out? Last request - my topic is about values in leaders. How can I eliminate bias from interviewees (senior mangers) when asking about the espoused vs enacted values? I want to establish that the values espoused are enacted.
The book, I believe, will be out this October. I am submitting the final version to my publisher now. You can suspend biases in different ways. Suspend biases by not taking anything for granted. Be a stranger in a strange land. Or you could use the concept of the hermeneutic circle to REVISE your biases as you take in information.
Just got an update from my publisher, and the book will be out in February 2020.
@@drkatpeoples Wow! Great news!
Great lecture 👍. Wondering what you think about using phenomenology for a autobiography about surviving childhood sexual abuse . I would use Heidegger and Existential Rogers' Carl three conditions for change themes. Carol
Like a self-case study? That would be fascinating!

this helped me a lot..is there a way you can mentor me in the research im now proposing, im using the phenom approach. thanks!
I'm not sure as it depends on what that mentorship would look like, but email me and let's chat - help@drkatpeoples.com
I really hope to get your reply. I am suddenly curious. If I want to study a person's opinion on something/phenomenon, what will be the corresponding qualitative research approach and paradigm? Considering phenomenology deals with phenomena, not perception.
You can do a case study if it's one person or just a few. This would give you ability to focus on thoughts, experiences, and everything else. If it's a study where you want to reach saturation, you can do a grounded theory, narrative research, and a few other qualitative methods depending on your goal and approach. Those allow you to open up to thoughts and opinions.
@@drkatpeoples Thank you so much for your reply, your videos are really helpful, and your books are so beneficial too!
I am a novice in phenomenology. May I ask you another question? Here I would like to check with you again. Can interpretive phenomenology be used together with other theories? For example, interpretive phenomenology is used to collect and analyze data, and then other theories are also used as lens analysis in the discussion part. And if It is descriptive phenomenology, the researcher certainly can not use other theories. Am I right? I learned this from your videos.
@@offlingua6791 IPA is its own method altogether that utilizes a few philosophers to ground it. It is an idiographic method and is pretty unique. With that said, elements of its data analysis method can certainly be adopted within your own method or it can be combined with another method. If you want to stick to pure transcendental phenomenology, you would not utilize other theories, that is correct. I would be hard pressed to see how it might be useful with transcendental, possibly with some data analysis organization ideas.
I'm still curious, does phenomenological research need a theoretical framework to support research results or as a research reference? what I mean is a theory of our topic, such as using theory of planned behavior if I want to do a human resource research. I am doing my dissertation proposal now and I wish to get your help .. thank you
You can add an additional theory to the theory of phenomenology, and you would have a sort of hybrid study. This would work well with hermeneutic phenomenology. You would use the theory of planned behavior as a lens to look through.
@@drkatpeoples Thank you for your reply, it is so helpful for me
Thankyou Dr Peoples for this amazing presentation. It was really helpful! I have doubts regarding what kind of interview questions to ask in phenomenological study. I am conducting a study to explore the experiences of Parents during COVID-19. I am using semi structured interview method to collect data. Is it okay if I have formed questions in the interview schedule based on a review of Literature ( for eg asking particular questions about homeschooling, etc which came up in already existing literature ?
Yes, I think that's perfectly appropriate. I would just advise you to ask about experiences only when framing those questions as opposed to opinions or thoughts since phenomenology is about experience. Since you are asking questions framed through fore-conceptions (i.e. lit review understandings), I would encourage a hermeneutic phenomenological study.
@@drkatpeoples Thankyou so much for your help!
hi! it was a very useful video. thanks! also, can you please help me find the page where Heidegger talks about how he rejects bracketing? at least one the references. i need it for my paper. i would appreciate it!
Hi Cristian, this is a direct quote that may help you, "Heidegger, one of these students, rejected theconcept of phenomenological reduction. Rather, he argued that fully compre-hending the lived experience was, in essence, an interpretative process and thatbracketing out preconceptions was neither possible nor desirable (Cohen andOmery, 1994; Heidegger, 1962; LeVasseur, 2003). Heidegger instead, adoptedthe position of being in the world, where contextual interpretation and meaningwere sought and valued (Gearing, 2004).Findley and Marias, contemporaries of Heidegger, also rejected the con-cept of bracketing (Smith and Smith, 1995), thus contributing to an enduringphilosophical tension between those who believe that looking beyond precon-ceptions is possible and desirable, and those who reject the notion that humanseven have the capacity to bracket out preconceptions" (Tufford & Newman, 2012, p. 82).

Omg, thanks a lot for taking the time to respond. You really saved me! :)
So glad it helped. I'm writing my PhD dissertation and I know how frustrating it can be sometimes to find citations. Good luck!
Wrathall's book - How to Read Heidegger - is really great too. :)
9:01
Can u please explain further what an essence is? If, say, you want to capture the essence of a phenomenon, how would you do it?
Simply put, the essence is the structure of the phenomenon. Essence is that "thing" that makes the phenomenon what it is. Without this essence or structure, a phenomenon would not be that phenomenon. It's like a definition but, obviously, much more complex than simply a dictionary sentence. So finding the essence of a phenomenon is the goal of phenomenological research. The "how" of it is explained in the video (very simply) through Husserl's way and Heidegger's way as applied in phenomenological research. But even more simplistically, one can ask, "What IS this phenomenon?" Different philosophers have different theories on how to get to the essence of a phenomenon, but the definition is the same across phenomenology.
i’m in high-school and i just want to write a phenomenological dissertation for fun
How very impressive!
What about Merleau-Ponty or Stein?
There are lots of philosophers to utilize. Merleau-Ponty's philosophy is a popular one to add , and that would make it existential-phenomenological research. That's great. I incorporate the lived body in my analysis and use Merleau-Ponty's philosophy quite regularly, but for the purpose of this presentation, I aimed to keep it simple for beginners. Heidegger or Husserl will always be at the base of any phenomenological dissertation. Researchers build from there. When first starting out, it's good to learn the basics.
What might be an example of an additional framework with the Heidegger approach to the essence of Cat?
Well, it could be any framework that fit the population studied. Perhaps Animal Theory would be appropriate for finding out the essence of cat.
@@drkatpeoples Thank you. So would you say that the additional framework is another one of the lenses also, or is it eg the fore-conceptions?
@@vanessaayoub5530 it is an additional lens, but it does come with certain fore-conceptions (which are the pre-understandings you gain from that theory about your phenomenon). Also, if you use an additional lens, your study would be a hybrid phenomenological study. You could title it, Animal Theory-Hermeneutic Phenomenological, for example.
@@drkatpeoples Much appreciate the clarification. Very helpful video :)
Am I right to assume that Moustakas would be transcendental like Husserl and Van Manen would be hermeneutic
No, both of those researchers have their own methods. Moustakas wrote a book about transcendental phenomenological research, but he has his own method, which is heuristic. Van Manen actually uses the concept of bracketing in his method, which is Husserlian. He utilizes a number of philosophies to ground his method, which is Lived Experience Human Science Inquiry. It is a reflective phenomenological approach.
@@drkatpeoples thanks .. I am doing Phenomenological interviews of people who suffered trauma for part of my doctoral research (Practical Theology Doctorate) ... would there be a best phenomenologist to use?
@@DaleSanger it really is up to you and how you connect with a certain phenomenology, but if you can go either way, I would go with Husserl's transcendental phenomenology as your theoretical framework. His work is empowering.
What about a Merleau-Pontian method.
yes, you could utilize Merleau-Ponty alongside Heidegger. It would be an existential-phenomenological methodology.
I got your book and saw on pg. 29 that you can't combine Husserlian phenomenology with a secondary theoretical framework. I'm studying the phenomenon of the conscientization process so I have to include conscientization in my "key theories" section. Also, since my population is Black, my committee is expecting me to include critical race theory. That means I have three separate theories to describe. My methodology is descriptive so I'm utilizing the Husserlian philosophy of phenomenology. What should I do?...Also in the video, it seems like the "key theories" section may be somewhat different than the "theoretical frameworks" section
You can switch to hermeneutic phenomenology and add additional frameworks. Your study would be a hybrid phenomenological study at that point, but it would be acceptable. If you wanted to do a true transcendental phenomenological study (Husserl), you simply would not add additional theories as lenses since that would defeat the whole purpose of bracketing.
Dear Peoples, i have asked one of my students from Austrilia to buy an online book - How to Write a Phenomenological Dissertation: A Step-by-Step Guide (Qualitative Research Methods) . he bought twice but could not send me in Nepal, the nation of Mt. Everest and Gautam Buddha i extremely need it. how can i get it in Nepal? South Asian country.
Perhaps you can contact the publisher, SAGE. They may be able to guide you better on how to get it.
I may be splitting kitty hairs but why did you take out furry but include front claws?
I am not sure if I am answering your question correctly, but not all cats are furry (Rex cats are bald) but all cats have claws (naturally - a declawed cat is still considered a cat with front claws since the cat was born with claws).
You are a stranger in a strangeland. 1 of 5 doesnt have hair, 1 of 5 doesnt have front claws. Why make an assumption regarding one attribute and not the other?
BTW. Nice Video. Clear, Articulate, simple. Great!
You mean George, the cat? He has fur. He's got some patches from a tough life but has fur. :) So he doesn't have front claws but has fur. No assumptions in his case.
Thank you very much. I truly appreciate it.
Is George still around? Thank you.
You know, he wandered off a couple of years back when we left for a trip as many male cats do. He was a great cat. He's probably still out there somewhere.
Soooo husserl is more like popper and Heidegger is more like kuhn? Except for phenomenology rather than Phil. Science
I wouldn't make those comparisons as I think they differ exponentially, but if pressed, you could say that Heidegger would agree more with Popper than with Kuhn, and Husserl would side with Kuhn rather than Popper.
The hermeneutic isn’t so correct. Heidegger is different is in his ‘tool’ analysis.. part & whole relationship
everything was fine until the example of cats- the data was not about cat experiences but objective physical features... which is qualitative data not qualitative research
Yes, great observation. I suppose you might need to imagine you were interviewing cats, and they told you about their lived experiences of being furry or having tails. Although, I thought that might muddy things a bit so I stuck to the basics to keep it super simple. You can refer to my book for more accurate qualitative examples of analysis however.
@@drkatpeoples I looked at it as more of the experience of cats - so rather than the objective data points, it would be the lived experience of encountering cats. Although that starts straying into Merleau-Ponty territory (love perception work), I was thinking more sensory experiences of encountering cats: soft fur, sound of purring, meows, sharpness of claws, cat behavior like rubbing against legs, behaviors, and so on. The prompt "What is a cat?" kept me from moving in the direction you mentioned - interviewing cats (so to speak).
Good stuff though! My dissertation is almost done, Husserl by way of Giorgi. This video, the others you did, and your book really helped me back when I was getting started. Thank you for providing such great, clear guidance. :)
A bunch of gibberish, morphology concepts one after the other with the noesis noema inversion hyphenated in italics in the middle of the paper. Ok that's what husserl did, I'm sure they'll let you.
Rules, rules, rules, rules, rules... You're not exactly the creative kind are you? Thank God Husserl and Heidegger actually created something instead of following rules laid out by their teachers.
