Σύνοψη	Visual Elicitation Visual Analysis (VEVA) is a qualitative method that uses photographs or other images as interview stimuli to prompt participant engagement, then subjects the resulting visual materials — both the stimuli and any participant-produced images — to systematic visual analysis. The approach treats images as the primary analytic object, examining composition, symbolism, and visual meaning rather than limiting analysis to the verbal discourse images generate. VEVA is particularly powerful in participatory visual research and photo-voice studies where images are both elicitation tools and data.	Visual elicitation thematic analysis (VETA) is a qualitative method that uses photographs, drawings, or other images as interview stimuli to provoke richer verbal accounts, then subjects those accounts to systematic thematic analysis. By grounding conversation in concrete visual material, the method unlocks meanings, memories, and tacit knowledge that purely verbal questioning often fails to reach. It is widely used in health, education, community, and organisational research.
