Abstract:
:This article presents and discusses the epistemological and methodological challenges related to the empirical study of first-person experience in mental health research. Considering the field of qualitative research, the methodological principles of phenomenology and medical anthropology are examined from a historical and conceptual perspective. The main operational concepts of the phenomenological method applied to empirical research, as well as their two main lines of approach, namely descriptive and psychological/transcendental phenomenology and hermeneutical or interpretative phenomenology, are described. The contributions of medical anthropology are studied especially with respect to the experience of illness and its forms of narrative. Lastly, considering the distinction between experience and narrative based on the theoretical benchmarks of phenomenology and medical anthropology, a more in-depth debate on access to first-person experience is conducted.
