Longitudinal Reflexive thematic analysis

Longitudinal Reflexive Thematic Analysis (L-RTA) applies Braun and Clarke's reflexive thematic analysis framework to qualitative data collected from the same participants (or context) at two or more time points. Rather than producing a single static account, it tracks how meanings, experiences, and themes evolve, persist, or transform over time, foregrounding the researcher's active reflexive engagement at every stage of the iterative process.
