Abstract:
The term “phenomenology” is increasingly being used in Health Professions Education research. Phenomenology refers to a philosophical tradition or discipline, yet there are two practical problems: phenomenology as a label seems to be used for any study that is interested in the experiences of participants; a more in-depth study of phenomenology in the literature yields either abstract definitions such as “examining the underlying structures of consciousness,” or contrasting translations of phenomenology to concrete research tools. What would phenomenology in medical education research look like that is both true to its philosophical roots and yields research findings that contribute to the quality of medical education? The paper formulates starting points for an approach to conducting HPE research that has scientific phenomenological integrity and yields practical results.
