요약	Visual elicitation qualitative content analysis (VEQCA) is a qualitative research approach that combines the use of visual stimuli — photographs, drawings, images, or artifacts — to prompt participant responses, and then applies systematic qualitative content analysis procedures to interpret and categorize the resulting verbal or textual data. The method harnesses the unique cognitive and communicative power of images to surface meanings that purely verbal questioning may not reach, while retaining the rigor of explicit, rule-governed content analysis.	Visual elicitation thematic analysis (VETA) is a qualitative method that uses photographs, drawings, or other images as interview stimuli to provoke richer verbal accounts, then subjects those accounts to systematic thematic analysis. By grounding conversation in concrete visual material, the method unlocks meanings, memories, and tacit knowledge that purely verbal questioning often fails to reach. It is widely used in health, education, community, and organisational research.
