Резюме	Longitudinal oral history is a qualitative research design in which the same participants are interviewed repeatedly over an extended period — months or years — using open-ended, narrative-focused conversations. By revisiting participants at multiple points in time, the researcher traces how individuals construct, revise, and reinterpret their personal stories as their lives unfold, capturing not just retrospective accounts but the dynamic, evolving nature of memory and meaning-making.	Narrative inquiry is a qualitative research methodology that treats stories and life narratives as primary data, analyzing how individuals construct meaning and identity through storytelling. Developed by D. Jean Clandinin and F. Michael Connelly (2000), narrative inquiry examines the narratives people tell about their lives, experiences, and transitions, understanding that people make sense of experience through narrative.
