Attraktion
en fenomenologisk studie om upplevelsen av att attrahera
The aim of this study was to investigate how individuals perceive the process of sexual/romantic attraction. A phenomenological approach was used, where the participants were asked to reflect as freely as possible upon a question formulated by the authors. 13 persons were selected through purposive sampling, eight men and five women, all between 20 and 30 years old were interviewed but only 8 were analyzed through phenomenological based software MCA-Minerva. The results showed that all participants talked about three steps; eye contact, closing the distance and conversation. In the latter step they differed regarding actions taken to attract. For instance one tried to analyze the person of interest and another tried to make the other person feel comfortable. Moreover the women tended to prefer men approaching them instead of doing it themselves.
