Abstract

The (auto)biographical method is a valuable tool for research and education, allowing individuals to reveal their life trajectories, learnings, and promoting (self)reflection and transformation. This article aimed to explore the (auto)biographical method, its composition, and its contribution to those who use it. Utilizing bibliographic research, the work systematized ideas from theorists in the field, presenting the potentialities and challenges of the method in the humanities and social sciences, as well as in the field of Education. The review demonstrated that the method is self-formative, relevant for acquiring competencies and skills. It can be concluded that, beyond being a research tool, the (auto)biographical method is an instrument for knowledge formation that deepens the understanding of personal development.
