| Abstract: | Content and Focus: This article will discuss phenomenology and phenomenological research methods, and through an exploration of the case of Empirical Phenomenological Analysis (EPA) will explore the possibility of a phenomenological approach to research through reverie. With regard to the relationship between phenomenology and 'phenomenological research', Husserlian phenomenology implies 'research', therefore, making the term 'phenomenological research' redundant and a misnomer. However, there exists an abundance of 'phenomenological research methods', which despite claiming to focus on the lived experienced of the participant, stand contrary to phenomenology in that they are broadly empirical, systematised and psychologise the notion of phenomenology. The case of EPA, which is a phenomenological research method, empirical in nature and mediated in line with 'scientific practices' will be discussed in depth. In turn, through the critical analysis of EPA, we see the need for an alternative approach to research, which is apposite with phenomenology's philosophical aims. As a result, reverie, which includes abstract musings, ruminations and wonderings, will be discussed as an approach to research through phenomenology. It is argued that reverie, contrary to traditional phiinomenolhgijiall research methods', facilitates access to the participants' concerns through an attendance to subjective and intersubjective experience in the research process, enabling the relational to emerge in and through research.
