Yorumlayıcı Fenomenolojik Analiz (IPA), felsefi kökeni fenomenoloji, hermenötik ve idiyografiye dayanan çağdaş bir nitel araştırma yöntemidir. Bireysel deneyimin sistematik olarak araştırılmasına bu yöntemin amacı olgunun nesnel ifadesine ulaşma amacının aksine belirli deneyimlerin, olayların durumların katılımcılar için taşıdığı anlamları ayrıntılı incelemektir. Başlangıçta “yaratıcı, esnek ak...

Since the development of the phenomenological method by Husserl, a variety of thinkers and researchers have contributed to an intense debate regarding the ontological and epistemological bases of Phenomenology, as well as its applicability to the inquiry of the human condition. This dialogue has spun an area of phenomenological research known as existentialphenomenological psychology, which has...

Qualitative research comes with various forms and faces, and, fortunately, there now exist numerous books that deal with issues related to qualitative research. Not that many books, however, deal explicitly and extensively with the transformation and application of principles of phenomenology and hermeneutics. Reflective Lifeworld Research is written as a response to this apparent need. It is, ...

Phenomenology questions the basic foundations of Modernity. In particular, it challenges Descartes‘ attempt to found the scientific method with absolute certainty. Phenomenology is defined by the work of Husserl, Heidegger, and Merleau-Ponty. Even though each of them developed their own way within Phenomenology, their theories are determined by a critique of the Cartesian method. For them, Desc...

We discuss the possibility of a smooth transition from the preto the post-big bang regime, in the context of the lowest-order string effective action (without higher-derivative corrections), taking into account with a phenomenological model of source the repulsive gravitational effects due to the back-reaction of the quantum fluctuations outside the horizon. We determine a set of necessary cond...

The paper shows that a phenomenological model of inertial induction based on a proposed extension of Mach’s Principle can produce the observed cosmological red shift in a quasi-static infinite universe. Unlike all other theories (except the Doppler effect) to explain the observed red shift this model can be verified from other local effects predicted by this mechanism. A number of such phenomen...
