Phenomenography

Phenomenography Synopsis

Phenomenography is an accessible introduction and practical guide to an influential qualitative research approach which is widely used in a range of disciplines. This book explores the idea of variation in the experiences of individuals and how such variation can be interpreted to lead to meaningful interpretations of social situations and phenomena. The challenges of phenomenography are outlined as well as helpful ways to approach them - from designing a suitable interview protocol to generating and analysing data through to making valid knowledge claims.

Covering important topics, Phenomenography draws on the authors' work to show how phenomenography works in action. Common questions about phenomenography are presented in an accessible Q&A format, where misconceptions about the phenomenographic approach are also addressed. This book is an essential resource for all researchers adopting a phenomenographic approach.
