摘　　要：This article examines the critical integration of reflexivity,cultural sensitivity,and emergent design in qualitative psychiatry research focused on lived experiences.While quantitative methods offer essential clinical insights,qualitative approaches provide a deeper understanding of the emotional,psychological,and social dimensions of mental health.Reflexivity enables researchers to remain aware of how their personal biases and professional backgrounds shape data interpretation.Cultural sensitivity ensures that mental health conditions are understood within their broader cultural contexts,helping avoid misrepresentation and promoting authentic participant expression.Emergent design offers flexibility in adapting the research process to evolving themes,particularly in the dynamic and multifaceted realm of psychiatric conditions.Together,these principles promote ethically sound,participant-centered research that captures the full complexity of lived experiences.The article also highlighted the practical implications of these principles for enhancing both academic knowledge and clinical practice in psychiatry.
