Sintesi	Longitudinal phenomenology applies phenomenological inquiry across two or more time points to capture how participants' lived experience of a phenomenon changes, deepens, or transforms over time. Rooted in the phenomenological tradition of Husserl and Heidegger, it adds an explicit temporal dimension — asking not only what an experience is like, but how it evolves. It is used where a single-point interview would miss the processual, shifting nature of lived meaning.	Longitudinal narrative research is a qualitative design that follows participants across multiple time points, gathering and analyzing their stories to understand how experiences, identities, and meanings evolve over time. Rooted in Clandinin and Connelly's narrative inquiry tradition, it treats human experience as fundamentally storied and temporal — what matters is not just what happened but how people narrate, revise, and make sense of their lives as circumstances change.
