The Laboratory for New Phenomenology at Eastern Washington University currently maintains six ongoing programs of research applying Quantitative Phenomenology, five of which are exempted human subjects research and one that involves historic archival research. These programs all explore various determinants of thought, and toward that end include measured factors ranging from the ecological, cross-cultural, and historic to the multicultural, interpersonal, and intrapsychic while spanning topics with local to global impacts:<\/p>\n","include_spacing":false,"expanded":false,"sections":[{"label":"HS-6417: Enhancing Norms for the Thematic Apperception Test","copy":"
This project utilizes Quantitative\u00a0Phenomenology to identify latent patterns in thought related to intrapsychic conflict by asking participants to tell stories in response to a series of pictures that form a stalwart and popular projective psychological assessment. In addition to the scientific benefits, this project holds the potential to develop a commercially viable automated scoring program specific to this psychological assessment.<\/p>\n"},{"label":"HS-6432: Messages to Intelligent Life Elsewhere in the Universe","copy":"
This project uses Quantitative Phenomenology to produce an in-depth analysis of each major common theme in messages submitted by participants, while investigating potential correlates of thematic variation and comfort with sending such messages. This project collaborates with METI International<\/a>, a global organization composed of scientists established in their fields, and involves its board in its planning and dissemination.<\/p>\n"},{"label":"HS-6433: Enhancing Norms for the Rotter Incomplete Sentences Blank","copy":" This project assesses thoughts about interpersonal dynamics as contextualized by current personal adjustment. It enhances both basic and applied understanding of the Rotter Incomplete Sentences Blank-2, a popular projective psychological assessment consisting of the written completion of 40 sentence stems. This project uses Quantitative Phenomenology to derive objective, reliable, and valid norms, and also holds commercial potential in addition to its scientific merits.<\/p>\n"},{"label":"HS-6434: Exploring Ways of Life in the United States","copy":" This project assesses multicultural identities through the intersection of national and ethnic or racial cultural identification. It produces normative scores for the Orthogonal Cultural Identification Scale (OCIS) according to contemporary ethnic and racial U.S. Census categories, and also with respect to American national culture generally. Quantitative Phenomenology is applied to open-ended questions asking participants to define key terms on the OCIS, such as what a \u201cway of life,\u201d \u201csuccess,\u201d or \u201ctraditions\u201d means for them in terms of their selected ethnic or racial identities, as well as for American national cultural identification.<\/p>\n"},{"label":"HS-6438: Exploring Common and Transcendent Experiences","copy":" This project seeks to better understand the ecological, social, and spiritual influences on perceived differences between common everyday experiences as compared to relatively rare and transformative peak or ecstatic experiences, in which a person experiences a profound alteration in perceptions of oneself, others and the cosmos. Quantitative Phenomenology is used to assess variation in thoughts about the self, others, and the cosmos contingent on the ecology in which the experience occurs.<\/p>\n"},{"label":"Archival Project: A Century of Refuge and Re-creation for the Region at Turnbull","copy":" This project uses Quantitative Phenomenology to analyze the archived annual narrative reports of Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) from the 20th Century, in order to identify patterns of impact on and integration with the local communities surrounding it, across its decades of existence. This project actively involves both the non-profit Friends of Turnbull NWR<\/a> and the federal staff in its planning and dissemination, as well as collaboration with the Office of the Archivist<\/a> at EWU\u2019s JFK Library.<\/p>\n"}],"component_options_toggle":true,"component_options":{"disable_component":false,"nickname":"","identifier":"","navigable":false}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","module_background_color":"off-white","copy":"Our Researchers<\/h2>\n
