  • "Feeling Higher Aspects in One's Life and Being Involved With Them "With One's (Whole) Self or 'I

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2017•Referências: 11

    In the "Consciousness in the Study of Human Life and Experience" articles, longer passages in interviews where the participant sincerely tries to make a sympathetic investigator understand her are considered as showing part of the participant's current consciousness in her life (part of her "consciousness-and-'I'"). The present article argues that a critical element in such passages is that the participant is involved in trying to make herself un…

  • The "Single Consciousness-and-'I'" of the Child at Different Ages

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2015•Citada por: 4•Referências: 15

    In elaborating their thesis that the subjective being of a person should be regarded as "a single consciousness-and-'I'" or as "a single reality of consciousness" "from childhood to old age," Witz and Goodwin based themselves only on their experience in qualitative research with adults (with the consciousness-and-"I" of participants who were adults aged 12 to 60 or so). The bulk of the present article first argues that the fundamental characteris…

  • Consciousness as a Characteristic of the Human Being as a Whole

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2015•Referências: 9

    This article outlines a conception of human consciousness that regards the consciousness of a person as a characteristic of the person as a whole-reflecting her entire experience and being, both on a day-to-day basis and over her entire life This has three general aspects. First, the consciousness of the individual as he experiences it continuously throughout his life is inseparable from his "I," and the individual may be regarded as "a single co…

  • Waheeda Remembering Her Cat Izzy

    Open Access•Brinda Jegatheesan, Klaus G Witz et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2014•Citada por: 3•Referências: 13

    This article is based on a single interview session with a 7-year-old girl, Waheeda, regarding the cat Izzy that Waheeda used to have 2 years before the interview. The interview was part of a research project that explored the relationships of multicultural children with their companion animals. The article first tries to give a larger impression of Waheeda's way of being (including consciousness) in two segments of the interview, using the philo…

  • The Self," "I," and "a Single-Consciousness-and-'I

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz, Hyunju Lee•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2013•Citada por: 4•Referências: 11

    This article discusses some thrusts and implications of Witz and Goodwin's (2012) conception of "a single consciousness-and-'I' from childhood to old age" for getting a much larger understanding of the human being in Qualitative Research and Inquiry. Already portraiture tacitly assumes the human being to be essentially unlimited and capable of being subjectively understood by empathy and reflection (Section 1). The bulk of the article argues that…

  • On the Root of Feeling One Is Subjectively Understanding Another

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz, Ronda J Brown•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2013•Citada por: 5•Referências: 7

    Witz and Goodwin suggest that every individual illustrates the "phenomenon/reality" of being "a single-consciousness-and-'I' from childhood to old age." This includes three aspects that are experienced together in an inseparable unity: (a) the fact that a sense of I is constantly in innumerable ways part of one's subjective experience, (b) feeling (presupposing, tacitly taking for granted, believing) one is the same continuous "consciousness-and-…

  • A Single "Consciousness-and-'I'" From Childhood to Old Age

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz, David R Goodwin et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2012•Citada por: 6•Referências: 7

    This article argues that the fact that most people feel that they have always been "the same person" represents an intrinsic phenomenon of subjective experience in introspection and consciousness in life (it is not just a peculiarity of the memory of the human species as it appears from an "objective" point of view). We summarize this phenomenon by saying the individual feels herself to be a "single consciousness-and-'I' from childhood on." Portr…

  • Knowledge, Attitudes, and Beliefs About Nutrition and Childhood Overweight Among WIC Participants

    Pascasie Adedze, Karen Chapman-Novakofski et al.•ARTICLE•Family & Community Health•2011

    This study assessed knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about nutrition, physical activity, and health risks related to childhood overweight among Women, Infants, and Children participants. Most (n = 165) were knowledgeable about causes/health risks of overweight (90%). The belief that "some people are born big or thin . . . " varied by education level (P < 0.05). Concerning activity, many (white non-Hispanic, 53%; African-American 69%) reported th…

  • Understanding Another Person and Cooley's Principle of Sympathetic Introspection

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz, Sung Ah Bae et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2011•Citada por: 12•Referências: 9

    This article looks at the problem of intersubjectivity, that is, how it is possible that a person can come to subjectively understand the subjective experience and larger state of another person, focusing almost exclusively on how this problem is addressed in qualitative studies using the "Participant as Ally-Essentialist Portraiture" methodology and Cooley's principle of "sympathetic introspection." The first four sections illustrate some of the…

  • Consciousness in the Study of Human Life and Experience

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz, Hyunju Lee et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2010•Citada por: 10•Referências: 8

    This article deals with the consciousness in a person when one tries to understand her more deeply and as a whole, as is done in studies using the "Participant as Ally-Essentialist Portraiture" approach, and focuses on "higher aspects" or moral-ethical, metaphysical, social and religious ideals, values, commitments, or inspiration in a person. The main thesis is that a higher aspect represents a "subtle and pervasive inner consciousness" in a per…

  • "Awakening to" an Aspect in the Other

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2007•Citada por: 10•Referências: 8

    This article discusses "awakening to" deeper aspects in a person and "articulating" them and contrasts this way of developing concepts and new understandings in qualitative research with "fashioning concepts at a level of words and phrases in an arena of public discourse." "Awakening to and articulating" may be epistemologically based on C. H. Cooley's (1909/1956) "sympathetic introspection," to the effect that after prolonged contact with a part…

  • The Participant as Ally and Essentialist Portraiture

    Open Access•Klaus G Witz•ARTICLE•Qualitative Inquiry•2006•Citada por: 18•Referências: 4

    This article describes some of the essential features of a methodological approach to studying individuals' deeper motivations and experiences. The overall approach consists of "interviewing for feeling" with "the participant as ally and co-contemplator," "conceptually developed essentialist portraiture," and cross-case discussion, with an epistemology based on C. H. Cooley's principle of "sympathetic introspection." The heart of the article is a…
