Abstract
Background: Locating and explicating philosophical frameworks, which enable a person-centred approach, is important for nurses undertaking research to respect and value participants during the process. This reflects the ideals of person-centred care.
Aim: To explore how Heidegger's philosophical concept of dasein and its relationship with the hermeneutic circle can support person-centred research.
Discussion: Dasein is described as 'being in the world' and encourages thinking about the ways in which people are bound to their surroundings and history. Understanding and applying it to nursing research is important as it enables researchers to explore the 'lifeworld' of another and promotes person-centred research practice.
Conclusion: Developing a person-centred approach to research can be achieved by using Heidegger's concept of dasein, which can enable the development of insight into another person's lifeworld.
Implications for practice: Understanding the concept of dasein enables nurse researchers to undertake person-centred research. Dasein recognises individuals in the holistic context of their world and values what is important to them. Situating findings contextually allows nurse researchers to influence nursing practice and policy.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
