Unstructured Interviews – A Conversational Iceberg

Qamar, Azher Hameed LU (2023)
Abstract
My ongoing work on the lived experiences of young adult migrants is phenomenological research aimed at the process of social resilience and social experiences of young adult migrants. I'm conducting unstructured interviews to learn more about the phenomenon's textural (what was experienced) and structural (how it was experienced) characteristics. In these unstructured interviews, I emphasize the migrants' stories, which are powered by their open and free voices. In this brief essay, I discuss the utility of unstructured interviews in phenomenological research.
