Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Phenomenological Psychology explores the intersection of phenomenology and psychology, focusing on concepts such as intentionality, empathy, perception, and subjectivity. It examines how phenomenological accounts, particularly those of Husserl, can clarify psychological phenomena and inform fields like social work ethics. The journal also investigates the subjective experience of phenomena like forgiveness, the uncanny, and trauma, and considers the implications of philosophical thought, such as Nietzsche's and Basaglia's, for psychological practice and understanding.
