概要	Digital Thematic Analysis applies Braun and Clarke's six-phase thematic analysis framework to qualitative data generated in or harvested from digital environments — including social media platforms, online forums, blogs, digital interview transcripts, and user-generated web content. It retains the same systematic coding logic as standard thematic analysis while incorporating additional decisions about data demarcation, platform context, and the ethical handling of publicly available digital material.	Reflexive Thematic Analysis (RTA) is a widely used qualitative method for identifying, analysing, and interpreting patterns of shared meaning — called themes — across a dataset. Developed by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke, it is theoretically flexible, works across epistemological positions, and foregrounds the researcher's active, interpretive role rather than treating themes as features that simply emerge from data. It differs from older 'codebook' approaches by treating the analyst's subjectivity as a resource rather than a source of bias to be suppressed.
