My sincere gratitude to Dr. Kathleen Ahern Gould for her ideas and suggestions on topics to write and present to our journal audience. The qualitative research methodological article series I wrote for DCCN inspired me to write this book. Thank you also for writing Chapter 7 on Publishing Qualitative Phenomenological Research Findings. I am thankful to Dr. Vickie Miracle. I published my first article in that same journal when she was the chief editor. I learned a lot, and honed my writing skills through the years working with both of them. Coincidentally, Wiley (which publishes DCCN) accepted my book proposal when I submitted it. I think this is meant to be – that I continue to be working with this great group of experts, and this publishing company.
My heartfelt thanks to Dr. Keville Frederickson and Dr. Donna Nickitas for their mentorship, guidance, support, and friendship through the years. You have always been there for me.
Thank you to Dr. Meriam Caboral‐Stevens for the views and thoughts we share, and for your friendship.
The ideas for this text I have pondered, presented, and discussed with colleagues and friends from the International Coalition of North American Phenomenologists (ICNAP), the International Philosophy of Nursing Society (IPONS), and the International Human Science Research Conference (IHSRC) group over the years. I am indebted to all of you who listened, questioned, argued, and gave suggestions for my work. I learned a lot from you all.
To all my research students, for whom I have learned so much – my reason for writing this book is YOU!
How to Use this Book
What is this textbook designed to do? As a whole, there are very few phenomenological nursing research textbooks published that are singly authored and offer a one‐stop holistic resource for novice researchers, graduate students, and experts alike. This text aims not only to guide qualitative phenomenological researchers on the selection of appropriate methods and techniques (as many books in the literature already do) but also to provide detailed discussions about rigor and the philosophical, paradigmatic, and conceptual aspects of phenomenological research, with full exemplars in each case drawn from my own studies. It also includes practical tips on the use of data analysis software, writing, publishing, the importance of mentoring relationships, and the challenges and dilemmas facing new researchers when they conduct a phenomenological inquiry. This will be the first qualitative book that presents the outcomes of qualitative research and specifically links them to evidence‐based practice, policy, theory, and theory development – all in one resource.
I started by sharing in the Preface my lived experience of conducting my first phenomenological study, looking back to how I continuously learned and grew through the years using this qualitative research methodology, how it impacted what I know now, and how I applied the knowledge I gained moving forward.
This book is divided into six parts. Part I first describes qualitative research as a whole, and then more specifically examines the philosophical, paradigmatic, and conceptual underpinnings of phenomenological inquiry. Part II looks at the methods of phenomenological data collection, reduction, analysis, interpretation, and presentation. Part III focuses on enhancing rigor and validity in phenomenological studies. Part IV provides a description of phenomenological writing, reporting, and publishing. Part V is about the practical aspects of phenomenological investigations. Finally, Part VI deals with phenomenological outcomes and applications in evidence‐based practice, policy, theory, and theory development.
Chapter 1 presents a snapshot of what qualitative research is and what its components are, before delving into the specifics of phenomenological
