Authenticity as first person practice

An exploration based on Bernard Lonergan

David Coghlan

Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, dcoghlan{at}tcd.ie

In this article I explore how the notion of authenticity may be grounded in first person practice, rather than in the quality of research data. Drawing on the work of the philosopher-theologian Bernard Lonergan who follows a first person approach and who articulates a notion of authenticity, I explore how authenticity may be framed in terms of being attentive, intelligent, reasonable, and responsible in engaging with the challenges of action research.

Key Words: action research • authenticity • Bernard Lonergan • first person practice
