The analysis within this approach is based upon the ‘hermeneutic rule’ of Gadamer, characterized by a dynamic movement between the whole, the parts, and the whole. The final outcome is a rich description of the essence – the invariant structure and contextual structure of the phenomenon and its constituents – the components of the essential structure. The process of data analysis is illustrated by empirical examples. ", }
