Description
Summary:In the recent trend of psychobiography, intersubjective psychobiography research has become a prevalent approach. Such a research approach has shifted its focus in terms of methodology and accentuates the intersubjectivity in narrations due to the influence of narrative paradigm, which effectively facilitate researchers’ self-transformations. This study introduced the researcher’s four-stage process of the intersubjective psychobiography research on Master Tai-Xu: suspense, empathy, interpretation, and formation and established a spiral, progressive learning model. This model can be applied for cultivating Buddhist practitioners and psychological workers as well as assisting them to engage in deep reflection and to form their own appropriate styles of practicing.
