PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDIES
Strength
Provides a rich and complete description of human
experiences and meanings.
Findings are allowed to emerge, rather than being
imposed by an investigator.
The investigator attempts to “bracket ”
presuppositions and biases to hold them in
consciousness through all phases of the research
and minimise their influence on the findings.
