The basic difference between studying and reporting a 'Lived Experience' through Narrative Study and Phenomenological Study is in their approach to understanding and interpreting the experience.

Narrative Study focuses on the individual's subjective experience and how they make meaning of it through storytelling. Narrative inquiry involves collecting and analyzing personal stories or narratives of individuals to understand their lived experiences. Researchers who use narrative inquiry are interested in exploring the stories that people tell about their experiences and the meanings they attach to those experiences.

Phenomenological Study, on the other hand, aims to uncover the essential structures of the lived experience itself. It involves exploring how individuals experience and perceive the world around them, and how they make sense of these experiences. Phenomenological inquiry involves suspending preconceived ideas and focusing on the experience itself, as it is lived and described by the individual.

While both approaches involve exploring the lived experience of individuals, Narrative Study focuses on the personal stories people tell about their experiences, while Phenomenological Study focuses on the essence of the experience itself.

Caro Dr. Abdul, não tenho como apontar diferenças entre os itens postos, uma vez que não tenho conhecimento acerca de Estudos Narrativos. Porém, sobre a fenomenologia e a experiência vivida tenho a dizer de um aspecto metodológico importante, que é o de uma pesquisa fenomenológica buscar não a ´coisa´, mas ela tal como é manifestada por alguém, ou seja, o que ela é para esse alguém.
