خلاصه	Interpretive visual analysis is a qualitative approach that applies an interpretivist epistemological stance to the systematic examination of visual materials — photographs, film, artwork, diagrams, and other images. Rather than coding surface features, it treats images as socially situated texts whose meanings are constructed through cultural context, viewer positionality, and the conditions of production and circulation. The approach draws on hermeneutics, semiotics, and critical social theory to surface layered meanings that visual data carry.	Interpretive discourse analysis is a qualitative approach that examines how language constructs social realities, identities, and meanings within specific contexts. Operating from an interpretivist epistemology, it treats texts and talk not as transparent windows onto the world but as active sites where meaning is negotiated, and it seeks to understand those meanings from the perspective of participants situated within their social and cultural worlds.
