Feedback:
Diekelmann's team method of hermeneutic analysis calls for the discovery of a constitutive pattern that expresses the relationships among themes. Benner's approach consists of three processes: searching for paradigm cases, thematic analysis, and analysis of exemplars. Some qualitative analysts use metaphors or figurative comparisons to evoke a visual and symbolic analogy. Central to analyzing data in a hermeneutic study is the notion of the hermeneutic circle, which signifies a process in which there is continual movement between the parts and the whole of the text under analysis.
