Muhtasari	Multiple case-based hermeneutic phenomenology combines the interpretive depth of van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenology with the structured cross-case logic of multiple-case study design. Each case — a bounded individual, group, or site — is analysed for the lived meaning of a shared phenomenon; findings are then compared across cases to reveal both unique contextual textures and common hermeneutic themes. The approach is favoured when context shapes experience in ways that a single case cannot fully illuminate.	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.
