This qualitative research using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) explores the brand experience of Recoletos Education in the Philippines. Two levels of interpretation are generated: that of the participants who make sense of their brand experience as lived experience and that of the researcher who makes sense of the participants’ interpretations. Validated transcripts from in-depth interviews reveal the participants’ convergent and divergent interpretations of their brand experience. Rigid thematic analysis helps construct a master table of themes with four superordinate themes expressed through metaphors: the house on rock, the shepherd with his flock, the good fruit, and the strong winds and the big waves, and these, in turn, correspond to brand attributes, synergy and strategy, brand experience dimensions, and brand challenges, respectively. Finally, these themes reveal and comprise the single overarching theme: the key elements in the brand landscape of Recoletos Education.

This study focused on the phenomenology of covering a natural disaster by documenting the lived experience of 12 national and local journalists who covered Typhoon Haiyan when it hit the Philippines in November 2013. Studies that focused on journalists who covered natural disasters have identified their experiences as either journalists trying to balance their norms or as victims dealing with trauma. Our analysis brings these experiences together for a more holistic description of the experience of covering a natural disaster, arguing that one aspect of the experience cannot be understood without the other. Through an interpretative phenomenological analysis, this study found that the journalists experienced the storm as journalists, leaders, victims, and as community members. Such experiences were marked by liminal gaps, with one experience affecting the other.

The Aeta tribe is one of the most widespread ethnic groups in the Philippines. They are known for their distinct identities and culture, which reflect deep-rooted traditions from their ancestors. Changing time and the emergence of new technologies have impacted the way Aeta lives and created unique changes for establishing and maintaining relationships among the members of the tribes. This research aimed to explore the influence of online technology on the life of selected Aeta natives in the Province of Pampanga. It used Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), a qualitative research approach where researchers carefully explored how participants made sense of their experiences. Results of the study revealed the major themes on the impact of online technology on the life of Aetas: (1) facilitate connection and maintain meaningful ties; (2) mindfulness of the gadget use; and (3) nurtures life. In conclusion, Aeta used online technology to assist them in their lives, making it less demanding yet meaningful, that there is no attempt to modernize their identity and achieve personal control with minimal reliance on online technology. Online technology cannot ultimately change the distinctiveness of Aetas’ cohesive behavior.

The Philippines’ 2016 presidential elections led to the development of the Duterte phenomenon constituted by individuals who identify themselves as Dutertards. This study explores the experiences of a single subject, who identifies himself as a Dutertard, of the Duterte phenomenon. A semi-structured interview was used to gather data, which were then analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Four super-ordinate themes emerged from the data: Frustrations with the Status Quo, the roots of the Duterte phenomenon; Duterte as the Liberator, the significance of Duterte for the people called Dutertards; Constructs of a Dutertard, the qualities that constitute the cognitive, affective, and behavioral aspects of such individuals; and lastly, Dutertards as a Microcosm of the Philippine Society, that Dutertards provide a perspective on the general construct of the Filipino interactive process. Furthermore, the findings suggest a connection between this study and motivation literature, particularly with Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Csikszentmihalyi’s flow theory. Lastly, the findings of the study provide insights not only for understanding these individuals but also to the ever-evolving construct of the Filipino psyche.

This interpretative phenomenological analysis explores the brand experience of Recoletos Education in the Philippines. Two levels of interpretation are generated: those of the participants who make sense of their brand experience as lived experience and those of the researcher who makes sense of the participants’ interpretations. The four participants chosen via life history homogeneous purposeful sampling have at least 25 years of connection with a Recoletos school. Validated transcripts from in-depth interviews reveal the participants’ convergent and divergent interpretations of their brand experience. Inspired by scriptural narratives, themes insinuate the evangelizing dimension of Recoletos Education as a Catholic school brand. Finally, they also bring about correspondence with brand attributes, synergy and strategy, brand experience dimensions, and brand challenges, respectively, as they also, at the same time, comprise and reveal the single overarching theme: the key elements in the brand landscape of Recoletos Education.
