Full textAbstract:
In the context of qualitative research, the objective in this study is to address the basic underpinnings and the potential applications of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as a theoretical-methodological framework. IPA is grounded in concepts and the articulation of three knowledge areas: phenomenology, hermeneutics and idiography. This text deals with the introduction and characteristics, potentialities, limitations of, and - more specifically- introduce and discusses theoretical and practical IPA applications in research. Although it is well established internationally, a limited number of studies in Brazil are grounded in IPA. Therefore, this paper is expected to contribute to the dissemination of the approach in the Brazilian context by filling the existing gap and, as a result, inspire and encourage the development of new studies.

Full textAbstract:
Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) is a research method gaining in popularity, particularly in health psychology and related fields. Derived from phenomenology, as the name suggests, it has potential for occupational therapy as an underpinning framework for research. This method was developed to enable researchers to provide participants with the opportunity to describe their perceptions of their lived experiences, which are subsequently interpreted by the researcher. A two-stage data process allows participants to make sense of their own world while the researcher attempts to make sense of participants' lived experiences. IPA acknowledges that researchers cannot gain complete access to the participant's world and that each participant is an expert in his or her field. However, it does recognise that the researcher's analysis of this world is a dynamic and interpretative process. During the research analysis process, themes are identified and connected and followed by higher-order interpretation. Data can be collected using a variety of methods, including interviews, case studies and focus groups. This paper describes the potential of IPA as an appropriate and worthy methodology for occupational therapists and, therefore, an important adjunct to the occupational therapy evidence base.

Full textAbstract:
Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) first appeared in publication in 1996 but was introduced as a comprehensive methodology in a first published book in 2009 by Smith, Flowers and Larkin. Since its publication, IPA has seen tremendous application in psychology and cognate social science disciplines. Most IPA studies have used interviews as their primary data collection tool. This is not surprising as semi-structured interviews fit the theoretical foundations of IPA and the authors of the IPA book themselves dedicated a chapter to interviewing. However, the authors have also lamented the lack of the use of diaries in the methodology. Yet, there are scarce IPA studies (or even phenomenological studies in general) using diaries as data collection tool. This is surprising as diaries are amenable with some core elements of phenomenology which IPA ascribes to. The inadequate use of diaries within IPA may be due to the lack of practical insights into what diaries could look like, how they can be obtained or whether they can fit with phenomenology. In this article, I reflect on how diaries can be administered and what kind of information can be accessed as part of a study involving children whose parents have mental illness. The article shows that diaries have strong connections with the theoretical foundations of IPA. Also, because diaries offer adequate time and space for participants to reflect on their lifeworld, it enables participants to talk in-depth about experiences of significance to them. The article can provide lessons for researchers hoping to employ diaries in their IPA studies or other phenomenological approaches.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to offer a complete guide to a qualitative method for capturing critical moments of managerial practice that combines interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) and existential hermeneutic phenomenology (EHP).Design/methodology/approachThis article is based on the findings of extensive research and describes in detail the specific steps that must be taken for complete replication of research. The research uses methods of IPA and critically develops the EHP framework with an emphasis on the analysis of interpersonal relationships.FindingsDepending on the testing of the research method in practice, the article evaluates the IPA-EHP method as suitable for the research on critical moments of managerial lived experience, considering the causes of the crisis.Originality/valueThis article is based on demand from academics who would like to use this method to analyse managerial practice. Especially now, at a time associated with a number of challenging events, such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, qualitative research is gaining in importance, even in management science. The original interpretative framework based on the phenomenology of Fink and Patočka is appropriate in this respect.

Full textAbstract:
As a research methodology, qualitative research method infuses an added advantage to the exploratory capability that researchers need to explore and investigate their research studies. Qualitative methodology allows researchers to advance and apply their interpersonal and subjectivity skills to their research exploratory processes. However, in a study with an interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) approach, the advantageous elements of the study quadruple because of the bonding relationship that the approach allows for the researchers to develop with their research participants. Furthermore, as a qualitative research approach, IPA gives researchers the best opportunity to understand the innermost deliberation of the ‘lived experiences’ of research participants. As an approach that is ‘participant-oriented’, interpretative phenomenological analysis approach allows the interviewees (research participants) to express themselves and their ‘lived experience’ stories the way they see fit without any distortion and/or prosecution. Therefore, utilizing the IPA approach in a qualitative research study reiterates the fact that its main objective and essence are to explore the ‘lived experiences’ of the research participants and allow them to narrate the research findings through their ‘lived experiences’. As such, this paper discusses the historical background of phenomenology as both a theory and a qualitative research approach, an approach that has transitioned into an interpretative analytical tradition. Furthermore, as a resource tool to novice qualitative researchers, this paper provides a step-by-step comprehensive guide to help prepare and equip researchers with ways to utilize and apply the IPA approach in their qualitative research studies. More importantly, this paper also provides an advanced in-depth analysis and usability application for the IPA approach in a qualitatively conducted research study. As such, this paper completely contrasted itself from many books and articles that are written with the premise of providing useful and in-depth information on the subject-matter (phenomenology, as a qualitative approach).

One approach to getting to know a user and understanding the user experience (UX) is phenomenology. Currently, there is a lack of clearly defined methods for phenomenological analysis of user experience in design projects. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) is an approach developed in psychology, and in this article, it is adapted to the case of a pro bono design project at a UX design agency supporting a disadvantaged group of people, newly arrived immigrants to Sweden. The design project involved research on how the immigrants experienced a service that introduced them to the job market. The adapted method, UX IPA, contributed to the pro bono project with a focus on both experience and meaning, which is important in design projects that relate to major events in users’ lives. The method was considered less appropriate in UX projects for specific products with highly instrumental use. The method can, in many cases, be too costly. However, costs can possibly be reduced by top-down approaches. In commercial UX projects, the method may be appropriate for the fuzzy front-end of design and innovation, but clients may be unimpressed by the small sample size. This can potentially be alleviated by mixed-methods approaches.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the recent interest in visual methods within qualitative psychology, few researchers have offered papers discussing the process involved in implementing such an approach. With this in mind, the following article, based on research conducted for the first author’s PhD, discusses why and how a visual method was used as part of the data collection, what it brought to the study and some cautions about its use. In the example described, the method contributed to an interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA), and it is argued that such an addition to the design sits well with the principles of phenomenology and can enhance access to lived experiences for both participant and researcher.

Objective - This study aims to analyze the implementation of QardhulHasan in Islamic Banking in Indonesia. This study uses the phenomenology approach to explain the phenomenon. Methodology/Technique - Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation and analysis was conducted using the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) and the Sharia Analysis. Findings - Results drawn from the Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) show that: (1) The meanings of QardhulHasan in Islamic Banking in Indonesia are diverse. QardhulHasanwas interpreted as loans and charity. The sources of fund drawn from the QardhulHasan sources in Islamic Banking in Indonesia originated from Infaq, charity, non-halal funds, fines, and donations. Qardhul Hasan in Islamic Banking in Indonesia was implemented with two models: Productive Loan Fund Distribution and Social Fund Distribution. From the Sharia Analysis, it was noted that most of the Qardhul Hasan objects were approved by the Islamic Economic Theory. Novelty - The novelty of this study lies in the analysis results which proposed that (1) Qardhul Hasan should be interpreted according to its goodness principles, (2) Source of Funds for Qardhul Hasan should come from ZISWAF, and (3) The model of empowerment should be developed according to the needs of the Indonesian population, especially as a maritime country Type of Paper: Empirical Keywords: Performance, SMEs, Social Financing Model, Sharia Analysis, Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis.

Working abroad has been a job that many Filipino teachers embarked on due to the benefits it offers. This paper explores the lived experiences of the ten (10) Filipino ESL and EFL teachers working in Mozambique, Cambodia, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Cambodia, Japan, Laos, Singapore, Vietnam, and Thailand. These teachers have been in service for three (3) years and more. The study employed a qualitative phenomenological research design. It used Heideggerian’s Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) with illustrated steps. The researcher uses a semi-structured interview to identify the lived experiences these participants have come across. The virtual data are gathered by means of Skype and Facebook Messenger. After an intensive analysis of the data, five themes emerged: (a) the driving force of the participants; (b) boons of the sojourn; (c) life learning encounters with students, and (d) scaffolds for the success of the sojourn. The findings reveal that the sojourn of the teachers in a foreign land had produced positive results and meaningful life experiences that had developed them economically, personally, and professionally. For future directions, researchers may delve deeply into the informants’ cultural encounters with their students and colleagues.

The objective of this study is to explore the experiences of high school students who are committing suicide in Malang, Indonesia. The study was qualitative research with an interpretive phenomenological approach and data analysis using IPA (Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis). Themes generated based on the results of the study include disappointment in the family as the basis of adolescent suicide, abuse from school friends triggers adolescents to think of suicide, and adolescents conduct suicide attempts spontaneously without planning. The results of this study indicate that many of the problems teenagers feel and think that trigger up causing teenagers to attempt suicide. The results of this study can also help us to better understand suicide attempts from the point of view of adolescents.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis focuses on men’s experiences of having breast cancer using a qualitative methodology to provide insight into the first-hand accounts of the participants. It aims to enhance the limited existing research in this area through the use of Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), exploring the psychological impact of having an illness commonly associated with women. The phenomenological and interpretative nature of IPA allows an in-depth investigation of men’s perspectives of breast cancer and explores the psychological, emotional and social impact on the participants. Interviews were carried out with six men who had been diagnosed with breast cancer in the last five years. Verbatim transcripts of the interviews were analysed using IPA. Three super-ordinate themes emerged from the analysis, with a further nine sub-themes identified. The discussion focuses on Gender & masculinity in line with the first two superordinate themes, ‘Derailment from my illegitimate illness’ and ‘Being in the shadow of pink’. The third super-ordinate theme, ‘Finding value in suffering’ is discussed in line with research on Meaning-Making and ‘Posttraumatic-growth’. Insight gathered by this study is thought to help understand male breast cancer patients’ unique and specific needs, so better tailored forms of psychological support can be provided. Existential and meaning-centered practices are suggested as feasible alternative approaches to traditional psychological treatments.

Full textAbstract:
Anxiety is one of the most studied research topics in sport psychology literature (Guillen & Sanchez, 2009); however, even though the Olympics are considered to be one of the most pressure-filled sporting events (Birrer, Wetzel, Schmidt, & Morgan, 2012), to date there has been no research aimed specifically at investigating Olympic athletes’ competitive state anxiety and its impact on subsequent performance. Furthermore, according to Nesti (2011), in order to support athletes in dealing with their experience of anxiety, researchers must turn towards the phenomenological, real-lived experience of the athlete to uncover what might best support positive anxiety management and interpretation in competition. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to respond to the gap in Olympic athlete anxiety research by examining the phenomenological experience of competitive state anxiety for female beach volleyball players at the 2012 London Olympics. Six in-depth, phenomenological interviews were conducted with these Olympic female beach volleyball players. Results indicated that, while all athletes in this study experienced anxiety at the 2012 Olympics, it was not the reduced intensity of anxiety that positively impacted their performance but rather the athletes’ ability to recognize, manage, and positively interpret their anxiety. In addition, it was shown that self-confidence further buffered the potentially negative impacts of anxiety. It is recommended that future research focus on extending phenomenological anxiety research to other sports and genders, and to specifically examine the impact of trait anxiety, team dynamics, and the experience of flow on athletes’ anxiety interpretation.

Full textAbstract:
In the UK children make the transition from primary to secondary school when they are 11 years old. The majority of pupils adjust well to their new secondary school. However, there is a minority of vulnerable pupils for whom transition is a challenging time. These children are more likely to experience negative educational outcomes during their first year in secondary school (Year 7). Therefore it is of the upmost importance to support these vulnerable children through transition. The experiences of six vulnerable Year 7 pupils were explored in this research. The pupils’ experiences of transition and of a Transition Project they had previously participated in whilst in their final year of primary school (Year 6) were examined. The data was collected using in-depth semi-structured interviews. The research adopted an interpretative phenomenological perspective to explore the participants’ experiences. The data was analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The findings of this research stress the importance of listening to children’s views. The main themes that emerged from the data included, ‘Struggling to Cope’, ‘The Importance of Friendship’, ‘Feeling out of Control’ and ‘Feeling Ready for Secondary School’. A rich description of the pupils’ experiences of transition and of a Transition Project is presented. This research has demonstrated that interviewing vulnerable children can yield rich and valuable data. It has also highlighted that children wish to have their views listened to and want to participate in research.

Full textAbstract:
Although psychological research into manic experiences is increasing, it remains an underresearched phenomenon. In particular, there is a dearth of qualitative research exploring these experiences in a clinical sample of people diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. This study examined six participants’ experiences of mania using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Through semi-structured interviews, the participants provided detailed accounts of how they made sense of and experienced their manic states. Three master themes were described: “A mixed relationship with mania,” “A separate and controlled self”, and “The struggle to be different.” The first master theme explored the participants’ mixed and ambivalent relationship with their manic experiences. These were viewed as both alluring and dangerous, but overall the perceived costs had outweighed the benefits, for all but one of the participants. Most participants described losses in relation to giving up their manic experiences, as well as losses related to the destructive consequences of their episodes. The second master theme examined perceptions of mania as a separate, uncontrollable phenomenon, over which they had little influence. It was hypothesised that these explanations served to relieve these participants from underlying negative emotions, such as guilt, regret, shame and selfstigma. The third master theme described how manic experiences had represented struggles to be different. These included a struggle against society; a struggle to experience a preferred self; and a struggle to access very unique experiences or abilities. A number of issues were discussed in relation to the above themes. These included positive and conflicting appraisals of high moods; loss; entrapment and helplessness; ambivalence; negative moral emotions and a preferred manic identity. A range of therapeutic approaches were suggested as potentially helpful for some of these issues. These included Motivational Interviewing, Narrative, Constructivist and Compassion therapies. Additionally, the findings of the study provided support for existing therapies for Bipolar Disorder; particularly Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Interpersonal & Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT).

Full textAbstract:
The implementation of telehealth applications is resource intensive and fraught with challenges unique to the people and places involved. The use of telehealth to provide clinical care to patients, educate patients and providers, and conduct research studies to advance medical science has been shown to positively affect issues of access and the quality of care. Previous research has focused on the use of specific technologies, known barriers to adoption and diffusion, and the general efficacy of these applications. Few studies have researched the role champions play in the deployment and operation of telehealth networks. The researcher proposed conducting an interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) of clinicians, educators and technical professionals within a successful telehealth network to determine the lived experiences that identify them as champions in the field.
Three research questions were studied: 1) What do telehealth champions believe to be the human elements necessary to advance telehealth systems?; 2) How do these telehealth champions explain their empowerment during the creation and use of telehealth networks?; and 3) How do these champions use shared processes and experiences to help spur engagement? Semi-structured interviews with 16 champions from the three disciplines were conducted to explore their lived experiences as part of a telehealth network. Seven champion themes - modern pioneers; champion teams; agents of change; knowledge brokers; supported by management; advocates, not champions; and well-prepared visionaries - emerged from the iterative review and analysis of data. Findings suggest that telehealth champions are not born but instead created. They are modern pioneers who function as part of innovative telehealth teams. Champions also serve as agents of change who utilize their knowledge of disruptive technologies to advocate for improvement in established healthcare systems. They are problem solvers who serve as resources for their colleagues, organizations and collaborative networks. Telehealth champions channel the universal goals of improving patient care and expanding healthcare access to overcome adoption barriers. Applying the ideals of what it means to be champions and how they overcome barriers to new telehealth applications could prove to be very beneficial for those tasked with developing new networks.

Full textAbstract:
This study embarked on exploring the experience of becoming and being a lay volunteer counsellor from a psychological perspective. Six participants were interviewed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as the research method. Race and gender are divided equally amongst Black, Caucasian, male, and female participants. Numerous dimensions relating to the lived experience of lay volunteer counsellors are investigated in the present literature, suggesting that the experience of becoming and being a lay volunteer counsellor is multifaceted. The subjective experience of each of the participants was explored, with the optimism that this exploration would expound on the multilateralism of these facets. Although specific experiences remain exclusive to each participant, the intersecting and co-creation of meanings culminated in the cultivation of themes common to the participants. These themes are examined against the literature, critically appraising supportive and distinct suggestions. As is evident from the results, participants have a profound appreciation of the stimuli which influence their experiences of lay volunteer counselling, but also of the circumstances surrounding the origins of their sense of volunteerism. Even though some of the literature addressed themes relevant to the participants’ experiences, a small number of themes could not be juxtaposed against available literature. Based on the narratives of the participants, as well as data in the literature, volunteers constitute a reasonable component of the service sector and assist a sizeable population. Therefore, the value of the lay volunteer counselling population should be recognised in order to develop further training and support programmes for this subpopulation. As it appears, recognising the essence of this value begins with appreciating the experience of becoming and being a lay volunteer counsellor.

Full textAbstract:
Women academics in collectivist societies, despite their significant numbers, have been of little concern to researchers. While women’s involvement in education and employment opportunities has increased and their economic positions have improved, their role pertaining to domestic responsibilities and care for the family in such societies remains the same. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological research is to describe the work-life interface as experienced by Malay Muslim women academics. This study also identifies the work environment factors that assist and/or hinder these academics in managing their work-life responsibilities as well as investigating the influence of culture and religion. Diary entries and in-depth telephone interviews with seven Malay Muslim women academics were employed to capture the essence of their daily work-life experiences. Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis as the research method, the findings of the study are presented under four themes: juggling multiple roles, sources of supports, impact of leadership style, and identity formation. The participants in this research provided valuable insights based on their many years of experience as academics in higher education institutions besides their roles as mothers and wives. The Malay Muslim women academics’ work-life experiences appear to be complex and multifaceted. Negotiating between professional and personal roles has an impact on the careers of women academics, their personal and family lives, and their well-being. In managing their daily work-life responsibilities, an interplay exists between Islamic values and Malay traditional customs. The customary practices which are important in the functioning of the society as a whole contribute in shaping their identity as women, family members and academics. In addition, leadership style can have a significant impact on their work-life management. For these women, the lived reality is that being an academic means having never-ending tasks that sometimes require personal sacrifices which are achieved through the support of family and work colleagues as well as their personal belief systems.

Jury, Rebecca. "Men waiting for heart transplant : an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) and clinical research portfolio." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2018. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/30817/.
Full textAbstract:
Background: Heart transplant candidates may wait a considerable and usually indeterminable length of time for a donor heart, uncertain if they will live or die. Despite this, there appears to be little research exploring how people experience this wait. Method: A qualitative design employed Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Male patients (n=7) on the routine waiting list for a heart transplant at an advanced heart failure service in Scotland participated in a semi-structured in-depth interview. Results: Three major themes, each with inter-related sub-themes were produced from the data. 1) ‘Threatened self identity’: this theme covered the challenge posed to the mens’ identities as a consequence of illness and their wait for transplant. This included a ‘diminished self’ and an ‘unwanted ill self’. 2) ‘Uncertain life or death’: this theme concerned the continuing uncertainty men had to live and cope with, and included ‘contemplating dying’ and ‘the unknowns of transplant’. 3) ‘Complex coping’: this theme covered the challenges of coping during the emotionally and physically challenging wait for transplant. Conclusions: The importance of finding meaning in waiting is discussed in relation to the revised transactional model of stress and coping, and the implications for health care professionals are discussed. There is a need for health care professionals to appreciate the individual meaning patients ascribe to their experiences.

Turton, W. "Living with psychosis as a longer-term health condition : an interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) study." Thesis, University of Southampton, 2015. https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/379621/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis details a phenomenological research study into the lived experience of living with psychosis as a longer‐term health condition in Southern England between 2012 and 2013. Ten people living with psychosis and supported by NHS Community Adult Mental Health Services participated in in‐depth interviews about their lived experience, which were analysed through the application of IPA. Five super‐ordinate themes emerged: The Awfulness, Psychosis as a Volitional ‘Other’, What is Real?, The Distressing Tyranny of Voices, and Liberation. The degree of experiential convergence within themes was high and determined by the level of explicitly or implicitly expressed separation from the psychosis. The study reveals an underestimated on‐going awfulness, specifically compounded by voice hearing. A heightened sense of vulnerability and threat is experienced and a loss of confidence in being able to keep the ‘self’ safe from the psychosis, which is perceived as a malevolent ‘other’. This is accompanied by a loss of confidence about what is real and what is not. Subjective realities suggest strongly that recovery‐supporting ‘liberating’ interventions need to go beyond anti‐psychotic medication. Findings resonate with the extant phenomenological literature and reawaken the debate about reconceptualising longer‐term psychosis as a trauma response to extraordinary and self‐ altering experiences. The thesis highlights that phenomenological research findings into the lived experience of living with psychosis as a longer –term health condition show a congruency and appear robustly salient with the subjective realities of living with psychosis yet remain underrepresented in informing both people who are living with psychosis and mental health practice. The discussion focuses on the relevance of findings for clinical practice with people living with psychosis and on issues of using phenomenological methodologies such as IPA to explore the lived experience of psychosis.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter provides an insight into the origins and traditions of phenomenology as both philosophy and methodology. Emphasis is placed in the earlier parts of the chapter on the delineation between Husserl and Heidegger, the forefathers of the discipline, whose work into epistemology and ontology have fundamentally shaped contemporary qualitative research. Understanding the key concepts of epoché and the implications of the ‘self' within phenomenological research are explicated so that the reader can consider the practicalities of whether it is possible to suspend presupposition and epistemic bias, or whether the ‘self' is something that has simply to be acknowledged as having a fundamental relevance to what and how interpretation is undertaken and how this has a consequent and tangible impact on research findings. The latter part of the chapter gives an insight into interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) as one contemporary approach to the integration of phenomenological research methods.

Full textAbstract:
In this study, interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA), one of the forms of analysis of phenomenology included in qualitative research paradigms, is introduced. First, the chapter emphasized what the phenomenology pattern is as well as the history and basic philosophy of phenomenology. Afterward, the phenomenological approaches will be mentioned, and a comparison of the related approaches shall be presented. The aim of this study and the research questions were shaped by including an exemplary phenomenon in the basic framework. In order to find answers to the relevant research questions, the method of the study, the participant selection, and the data collection process, ensuring validity and reliability and the issues to be considered in the interpretation of the data were discussed. The analysis process of the data collected through a sample data collection tool was explained. The results obtained through IPA were combined under themes. In this way, a model was developed in the study. In this study, important explanations about the use of IPA for researchers were given.

Full textAbstract:
Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with the senior level advertising agency employees that work in the creative and strategic planning departments to learn about their opinions on neuromarketing and the various issues related to neuromarketing. Interpretative phenomenology analysis (IPA) was used to examine the research data. The study reveals three interpretive themes: 1) Neuromarketing and advertising research (the role of research in advertising – applying neuromarketing to advertising); 2) perspectives on neuromarketing and related topics (concerns about creativity in advertising – ethical issues); and 3) the future of neuromarketing. The results from this study indicate that advertising professionals are aware of neuroscience, but opinions on the use of neuroscience in marketing and advertising differ mostly based on the department they work in at the agency.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 9 of Performing Music Research introduces the characteristics of qualitative analysis, focusing on the interpretative role of the researcher. Given that large volumes of information are typically collected in qualitative enquiry, the chapter presents ways of organizing and storing data and discusses the strengths and limitations of computer-assisted analysis. It goes on to discuss three types of qualitative analysis: thematic analysis, suitable for identifying patterns of meaning across data collected from multiple participants; interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA), suitable for understanding the lived experience of individual participants; and qualitative synthesis, suitable for developing a holistic account based on a synthesis of the data. Throughout, the chapter explains how to report qualitative results efficiently and effectively.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter explains the book’s premise – that it is possible to expand the scope of restorative justice for survivors of sexual abuse by asking – does it have to be with the abuser? It presents the researcher’s definition of restorative justice for sexual abuse. The use of interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) to conduct feminist research in collaboration with a specialist sexual abuse charity is discussed. This chapter includes a diagrammatic portrayal of the stages of this IPA study as well as showing how these stages are covered within the text.

Full textAbstract:
This interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) study draws on survivors’ voices, gathered using assisted questionnaires and interviews, and this chapter explains this process. Each participant is introduced, with brief details of their case and circumstances. The strength of their emotions towards others involved in their abuse are presented along with their initial considerations of their interest in restorative justice processes, as they described in their assisted questionnaires. There are also details of the semi-structured interviews from which the extensive quotes in this IPA study are drawn. This provides the contextual information necessary for the research findings to be understood, grounded as they are in the participants’ lived experiences.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter shares the main findings of this interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) study, by giving voice to the participants and making sense of their voices. Three theoretical insights are presented, each illustrated with extended quotes from the participants. Through this, the complex, triangulated relationships of sexual abuse are uncovered, and the participants’ need for the act and the impact of abuse to be recognised is highlighted. The chapter concludes by exploring the role of narrative in the participants’ journeys towards justice and healing, and how these are strengthened or challenged through the cycle of narrative development.

Full textAbstract:
This research is about understanding and elevating the experienced voice of women in academic leadership positions at the mid-career point. Mid-career is a time characterized by various emotional and mental perspectives that fall along a continuum (or spectrum) from exhausted and confused to relieved and free. The study is about women holding leadership positions where they have facilitated the success of underrepresented students at HBCUs to broaden participation in STEM. Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) was used in this study to understand the journey of four mid-career academic women leaders at four HBCUs. A semi-structured interview protocol was administered. An analysis of women's responses to challenges and successes revealed that they experienced more success than challenges. The findings of the study have implications for future leadership development for women in academe.

Full textAbstract:
"Curriculum reformists were caught off-guard over the past two years by the unforeseen and extreme pressure of the COVID-19 pandemic. This phenomenon threatened to engulf humans in despair. Institutions of higher learning initiated moves to remote learning, as a measure to prevent the spread of the virus while continuing to promote teaching and learning. Scholars were absorbed by grasping the importance and application of a revolution in curriculum reform. The use of remote learning in curriculum practice to improve teaching and learning is a recent initiative in the package of curriculum and pedagogical reforms in South Africa. The aim of this paper is to reflect on adaptive experiences of pre-service economic and management sciences teachers, their ability to adapt curriculum practice to remote learning of this specific curriculum, and pedagogical reform of the use of remote learning in schools. An architecture theory, which draws on the famous quotation of Adolf Loos's parable about “the poor rich man” and whether they really understand the lesson, was used as the main lens for the study. An interpretative phenomenological analysis approach, as a form of critical education science, was employed to generate data. The basic purpose and essence of the IPA approach in a qualitative research study is to examine the life experiences of the research participants and to allow them to narrate the research findings through their lived experiences and critical reflections, thereby deliberately embracing diversity as characterised by the unequal context of South African education. Phenomenological analysis was used to arrive at the following findings. First, higher learning institutions are obligated to create practical learning experiences for pre-service teachers. Second, the phenomenon that resulted in the necessity to embrace remote learning impacted participants academically, socially and psychologically. The paper concludes with the recommendation that the prefigured remote learning for professional teaching practice should be reconfigured."
