الملخص	Digital visual analysis is a qualitative approach for systematically examining visual materials that originate in, circulate through, or are consumed within digital environments — including social media images, video content, screenshots, memes, infographics, and online multimodal texts. Drawing on visual methodologies and digital research methods, it attends not only to what images depict but also to how they are produced, shared, and interpreted within specific digital platforms and social contexts.	Content analysis is a systematic research technique for reducing text, visual, or media material into coded categories so that patterns can be counted, compared, and interpreted. Formalised by Klaus Krippendorff in his widely cited methodology textbook (latest edition 2018), the method sits at the boundary of qualitative and quantitative inquiry: it imposes structured, replicable coding on inherently meaning-laden material.	Netnography is a qualitative research method that adapts the principles of cultural ethnography to the study of online communities and social media environments. Coined by Robert Kozinets in 1997 and systematised in his 2010 handbook, netnography treats digital spaces — forums, social networks, blogs, review sites — as naturally occurring field sites where communities gather, share meanings, and construct identities. The method combines unobtrusive observation of digital traces with active participation and, where appropriate, direct member interaction.
