תקציר	Visual elicitation content analysis combines the photograph or image-based interview technique known as photo elicitation with the systematic coding procedures of content analysis. Participants are shown selected visual stimuli — photographs, drawings, video stills, or researcher-produced images — and invited to respond verbally. Those verbal responses are then subjected to structured content analysis to identify recurring themes, categories, and patterns across participants, bridging the depth of elicited meaning with the rigor of systematic coding.	Narrative analysis is a qualitative research method, synthesised canonically by Catherine Kohler Riessman (2008), that examines how individuals storise their lived experiences and construct meaning through the telling. Drawing on life history, biographical, and narrative inquiry traditions, it treats the story itself — not just its content — as the unit of analysis, attending to temporal sequence, plot structure, and the social context in which a narrative is produced.
