Summary, in English
This paper presents an approach to validity and related questions of empirical research starting from and aiming at an understanding of the individual’s life-world experience strictly from the point of view of the individual himself and fitting to the theoretical frame of reference for the development of the ontological and methodological reflections of Husserlian phenomenology. I introduce a method of conducting research and analysing protocols that offers students and researchers in psychology and related fields a way of conducting empirical studies founded on different ontological and epistemological premises compared to the traditionally dominant in the positivist way, be it quantitative or qualitative in its methods of data collection and treatment.
