Zusammenfassung	A mobile in-depth interview (mIDI) is a qualitative data collection technique in which a researcher conducts an extended, exploratory conversation with a participant using a smartphone or tablet, either synchronously (voice or video call) or asynchronously (voice-message or text exchange). The approach retains the probing, open-ended character of traditional in-depth interviewing while leveraging the ubiquity and convenience of mobile technology to reach participants in naturalistic, everyday settings.	A telephone-assisted in-depth interview is a qualitative data collection method in which a researcher conducts a lengthy, open-ended, exploratory conversation with a participant via telephone. It preserves the depth and flexibility of face-to-face in-depth interviewing while overcoming geographic and mobility barriers, making it particularly useful when participants are dispersed, housebound, or when travel is impractical.
