Zusammenfassung	Visual Elicitation Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (VE-IPA) combines the idiographic, sense-making framework of Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis with visual elicitation techniques — photographs, participant-produced drawings, or other images — to deepen access to lived experience. Visuals serve as concrete anchors that help participants articulate feelings and meanings that are difficult to express in words alone, making the approach especially productive for embodied, emotional, or tacit dimensions of experience.	Phenomenology is a qualitative research approach that investigates how participants live through and make sense of a specific experience. Rooted in the philosophy of Edmund Husserl and extended by Martin Heidegger, it aims to reveal the essential structures of lived experience rather than to measure or predict outcomes. The two most widely applied variants are Husserl's transcendental phenomenology, which seeks universal essences, and Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenology, which emphasises interpretation within context.
