This methodology demonstrates structured psychological self-inquiry using AI in various disciplines, suggesting new approaches for self-exploration.
This paper presents a replicable methodology for structured psychological self-research using a large language model as an analytical partner. The framework combines autoethnography, single-case research design, and expressive writing with conversational AI. The AI operates in four constrained roles — analyst, synthesizer, quality controller, and scribe — while all editorial decisions remain with the human researcher. Applied across six interdisciplinary domains including post-traumatic growth and lone founder psychology.Nederlandse versie bijgevoegd / Dutch version included.
