Σύνοψη	Visual elicitation autoethnography (VEA) is a qualitative self-study method that combines the personal narrative orientation of autoethnography with the stimulus power of visual artefacts — photographs, drawings, or found images — to prompt and deepen autobiographical reflection. The researcher produces or selects images from their own life, then uses those images as elicitation tools to generate rich written or spoken narratives about a cultural phenomenon they have lived through, positioning the self as both researcher and research subject.	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.
