In this article, an attempt is made to analyse important implications of the hermeneutic approach in qualitative studies. The article discusses the hermeneutic circle with regard to reasoning contexts, on which the researcher's interpretation is based. Problems in connection with achievement of 'proper' understanding in an interpretative process are discussed in light of Gadamer's hermeneutic philosophy. Some features of qualitative studies are addressed. This is concerned with arguments in the presentation of findings in qualitative studies using the hermeneutic approach. The essence of the article is there are grounds for reasonable understanding, even though it cannot be absolute in the hermeneutic.
本文试图分析诠释学方法在定性研究中的重要意义。文章讨论了与推理语境相关的诠释学循环，而研究者的解释正是基于这些语境。根据伽达默尔的诠释学哲学，探讨了在解释过程中实现“恰当”理解所涉及的问题。文中还阐述了定性研究的一些特点。这涉及到在使用诠释学方法的定性研究中呈现研究结果时的论证。本文的核心观点是，尽管在诠释学中理解不可能是绝对的，但仍有合理理解的依据。
