Detailed explanation-1: -In principle, phenomenology focuses on peoples’ perceptions of the world or the perception of the ‘things in their appearing’ (Langdridge 2007, p. 11). Phenomenology is often defined in terms of the study of phenomena as people experience them-human experience in his or her life (von Eckartsberg in Valle 1998).
Detailed explanation-2: -Phenomenology is a philosophy of experience. For phenomenology the ultimate source of all meaning and value is the lived experience of human beings. All philosophical systems, scientific theories, or aesthetic judgments have the status of abstractions from the ebb and flow of the lived world.
Detailed explanation-3: -Phenomenology helps us to understand the meaning of people’s lived experience. A phenomenological study explores what people experienced and focuses on their experience of a phenomena.
Detailed explanation-4: -Phenomenology shows how human experience fundamentally takes place in the first-person perspective. In phenomenology, experience plays a central role because it is only through experience that the various phenomena in human life are accessible.
