Muhtasari	Field-based hermeneutic phenomenology investigates the meaning of lived experience by immersing the researcher in the natural setting where participants live, work, or act. Drawing on Heidegger's ontological hermeneutics and van Manen's pedagogical application, it combines sustained fieldwork — observation, conversation, and artefact collection — with iterative interpretive text analysis to uncover how participants understand and inhabit their world.	Field-based ethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher immerses themselves in a social setting or community over an extended period, observing and participating in everyday life to understand cultural practices, meanings, and social dynamics from an insider perspective. It is the classical form of ethnography, grounded in sustained physical presence at a research site, and distinguished from archival, virtual, or document-only approaches by its central reliance on direct, embodied fieldwork.
