“…In empirical phenomenological psychology, this takes the form of an examination initially directed at the verbal or written material which the research participant produces rather than at the experience itself, while in hermeneutic phenomenological psychology, it takes die form of an analysis and interpretation of the symbolic behaviour accompanying an experience. In some studies it is even the case that the psychologist makes few claims about the experience of the subject as such, but rather focusses on the meanings of their words and actions themselves (Dolis, 1986). This notion that intentional events can be visible to an observer is in keeping with Husserl's metatheory.…”

“…They also observed iconic signs, as in Coenen's study of deaf children where spontaneous gestures and sign language were central. Researchers typically employed a psychoanalytic (Eng, 1984) or existential framework of interpretation (Dolis, 1986). For example, Dolis found a wife's demand for the affirmation her existence when she asks her husband "What do you think you're doing?"…”

The methodologies of Husserlian and contemporary phenomenological psychology are compared. The Husscrlian project was an a priori, descriptive, intuitive inquiiy into the universal, necessary structures of intentional phenomena. Contemporary phenomenological psychology, examined here through a review of contemporary psychological articles and methodological sources, includes four types of methods: empirical, hermencutic, traditional and experimental. Phenomenological psychology continues to attempt to describe the essences of experiences. However, in contrast to the Husserlian phase, the current stage of the movement is characterized by the inclusion of the experience of a group of subjects in addition to that of the researcher, the use of hermeneulic rather than descriptive methods, existentialism as an interpretive guide, and the use of empirical as well as a priori evidence for the gcneralizability of descriptions. Kssentialism as a central tenet of phenomenological psychology is criticized in light of anthropological evidence.
