“…Originating in the therapeutic field and recently used in guidance research, IPA is an inductive method for understanding complex psychological phenomena ( Smith et al, 2009 ; Baatouche, 2020 ; Bernaud, 2021 ). IPA, which uses the semi-structured, in-depth interview as a technique, requires the researcher to shed presuppositions and position the participant as co-researcher, having his own knowledge of himself.…”

“…To verify our hypotheses, we chose to conduct two-phase research: an analysis phase and an experimental phase ( Baatouche, 2021 ). The first phase consisted of exploratory research conducted on a sample of five students, based on an interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA).…”

“…What kind of support could help to ensure a serene (re)investment in university education? This is the question we tried to answer in a recent Ph.D. research project based on a mixed empirical approach, taking advantage of an interpretative phenomenological approach to build a device to support meaning ( Baatouche, 2020 ).…”

“…Inherited cultural capital constitutes a mental, symbolic and cognitive tool that allows us to interpret the world in which we evolve from childhood ( Baatouche, 2020 ). Taking a step back from our primary culture can be done at school and at university through a reflective and hermeneutic pedagogy, allowing for a distancing, a step back, a reworking of meaning ( Dumont, 1968 ).…”

“…These various phenomena, which reflect a deterioration in the relationship with learning at the university, are often the beginnings of a complete drop-out of a student who is suffering. They can be studied in terms of meaning ( Baatouche, 2021 ; Baatouche et al, 2021 ).…”

The phenomenon of malaise is on the rise at universities, reflecting a deteriorating psychological state that is a combination of anxiety and stress factors. This psychological and emotional upheaval within students is indicative of a fundamental existential issue. In fact, hidden behind the choice of an educational program is the significance given by the student to their life goals. It is this dimension of attributing meaning to one’s education and, more broadly, to one’s life (the existential dimension) that we have sought to explore. We hypothesized that a stable investment in one’s life goals and a sense of psychological wellbeing during one’s studies could be fostered by reflective work done alongside the educational process. Our research took the form of a mixed methodological approach to the attribution of meaning to education, including an interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA), and the experimentation of support for the meaning of education. Four dimensions of meaning were found to be observable in varying degrees in all students, each playing a specific role. Moreover, this research has confirmed that the meaning of studies is not to be understood solely in terms of education, but is part of a singular life story. Reflective work, developing meaning, facilitated by others (advisor, teacher, etc.) can help preserve/restore the feeling of wellbeing. It should be noted that, as the work presented in this article predates the pandemic, we will not address the amplifying effects of this health crisis on existential issues, which some recent studies are beginning to highlight.
