Resumo	Digital Conversation Analysis (DCA) applies the systematic, turn-by-turn analytical procedures of Conversation Analysis (CA) to digital and computer-mediated interactions — including chat logs, social media threads, instant messages, and online forums. Rooted in the foundational CA framework of Sacks, Schegloff, and Jefferson, DCA adapts classical concepts such as turn-taking, adjacency pairs, and sequential organisation to account for the asynchronous, multimodal, and textual character of online communication.	Thematic Analysis (TA) is a qualitative research methodology for identifying, analyzing, and reporting patterns (themes) in qualitative data. Developed systematically by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke (2006), TA is flexible and accessible, applicable across diverse theoretical frameworks and data types, making it one of the most widely used qualitative methods in psychology, health research, and social sciences.
