Tiivistelmä	Longitudinal phenomenology applies phenomenological inquiry across two or more time points to capture how participants' lived experience of a phenomenon changes, deepens, or transforms over time. Rooted in the phenomenological tradition of Husserl and Heidegger, it adds an explicit temporal dimension — asking not only what an experience is like, but how it evolves. It is used where a single-point interview would miss the processual, shifting nature of lived meaning.	Phenomenology is a qualitative research approach that investigates how participants live through and make sense of a specific experience. Rooted in the philosophy of Edmund Husserl and extended by Martin Heidegger, it aims to reveal the essential structures of lived experience rather than to measure or predict outcomes. The two most widely applied variants are Husserl's transcendental phenomenology, which seeks universal essences, and Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenology, which emphasises interpretation within context.
