5: Phenomenographic transcription and data analysis

Rights and permissions Cite this chapter

Analysis and interpretation of data forms the fifth chapter. As there is no prescribed way of appraising the data, the authors demonstrate how they each tackled this, paying attention to the tasks involved and to some of the other methods they have found to be useful and interesting from the literature. Phenomenography explicitly acknowledges the role of the researcher whose work it is to articulate how people report to perceive a phenomenon, through their descriptions of it. This goes to the core of what this research approach is all about.
