Italian term or phrase: indagare
Da un capitolo: "Nel presente lavoro si intende approfondire come viene indagata la “faccia sociale” dell’esperienza oncologica in chi la vive in prima persona, attraverso l’identificazione degli strumenti ....."
l'unica spiegazione che mi è stata fornita è che "faccia sociale" può essere resa come "aspetti sociali": quindi "how the social aspects of the oncological experience may be / are investigated???? by who experiences them...."

agree  litalh: Investigate goes better with drug evaluations. As this is a social phenomenon I agree that "studied" could be more suitable

researched


Explanation:
possibly.... in context, or as suggested "studied". It doesnt seem like the 'evidence' is there on the surface. It needs researching of some kind.
