सारांश	Interpretive Reflexive Thematic Analysis applies Braun and Clarke's reflexive thematic analysis framework explicitly within an interpretivist epistemological stance. The analyst treats meaning as co-constructed between researcher and data, foregrounds their own subjective positionality throughout the coding and theming process, and produces theoretically rich accounts of participant perspectives rather than surface-level content summaries. It is among the most widely used analytical approaches in contemporary qualitative research.	Interpretive phenomenology is a qualitative research design that investigates the meaning people attribute to their lived experiences by combining phenomenological description with hermeneutic interpretation. Rooted in Heidegger's ontology and systematised for social and human sciences by Max van Manen, it moves beyond description to ask what an experience means within a person's broader lifeworld, cultural context, and situated understanding. The researcher's own interpretive horizon is treated as an analytical resource rather than a bias to eliminate.
