Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 7   EBP 0927 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Dialogical Engagement

Captions available

The idea

In hermeneutics understanding is reached through the interpreter's dialogical engagement with the material — thinking that proceeds like a conversation.

In practice

An analyst moving repeatedly between the whole account and its parts.

Where people slip

This is a method, not a metaphor. The movement back and forth is what produces the interpretation.
