Reflection: A Socratic approach

Abstract: Reflection is a fuzzy concept. In this article we reveal the paradoxes involved in studying the nature of reflection. Whereas some scholars emphasize its discursive nature, we go further and underline its resemblance to the self-biased dialogue Socrates had with the slave in Plato’s Meno. The individual and internal nature of the reflection process creates difficulty for studying it validly and reliably. We focus on methodological issues and use Hans Linschoten’s view of coupled systems to identify, analyze, a… Show more

“…The question is complicated also by the fact that reflection has not only to do with thinking, but with all the psychic processes and even with action. This is why "reflection" is often referred to as a "fuzzy" term in psychology (Van Seggelen-Damen et al 2017). It can refer to self-perception, to meta-cognition, to emotion regulation, but also to self-efficacy and self-assessment (Dunning 2005).…”

“…These other patterns such as personal and practice-based knowing can also enhance the integrity of scientific inquiry through deliberate use of methods, including self-reflection. A review of research into reflection (Van Seggelen-Damen, Van Hezewijk, Helsdingen, & Wopereis, 2017) revealed three different dimensions that engage nursing patterns of knowing and that are evident in Pool’s method of self-reflection. There is (a) self-awareness , which focuses on personal knowledge structures; (b) self-reference , concerning the self in relation to others (though more specific to reflexivity than self-reflection); and (c) self-inquiry , which involves questioning one’s underlying assumptions and biases.…”

“…While some may object that a process as personal or subjective as self-reflection can be adequately described in, say, 10 steps as Dr. Pool has done, I offer the counterargument that it is the very nature of nursing science that we study what is challenging, complex, and dynamic about human beings, including phenomena that are personal or subjective or “fuzzy” as reflection has been described (Van Seggelen-Damen et al, 2017). Consider, for instance, some of the fuzzy phenomena studied by nurses: spirituality, meaning-making, grieving, courage, and many other lived health-related experiences so relevant to human well-being and becoming.…”
