Objective
To describe the development of interpretive profiles for a hermeneutic phenomenological research study.
Methods
literature review was conducted to identify research that has used interpretive profiles. An initial interpretive profile was constructed.
Results
The final outcome was an interpretive profile that contained a case summary and addressed the aims of the researcher's study. The interpretive profile contained background material, coded excerpts, and interpretive comments.
Conclusions
Interpretive profiles can assist emerging scholars in describing self-world relations and experiential variations within and across participants. Interpretive profiles can facilitate the writing of dissertations and manuscripts since the data is systematically archived and easily retrievable.
