Rezumat	A multiple case-based single case study — also called an embedded single-case design — is a qualitative strategy in which a researcher investigates one bounded case (the primary unit of analysis) by systematically examining multiple embedded sub-units within it. Rather than studying several separate cases for comparison, the design focuses all analytical attention on one overarching case while using variation across its internal sub-units to build a richer, more robust understanding of that single case.	Narrative inquiry is a qualitative research methodology that treats stories and life narratives as primary data, analyzing how individuals construct meaning and identity through storytelling. Developed by D. Jean Clandinin and F. Michael Connelly (2000), narrative inquiry examines the narratives people tell about their lives, experiences, and transitions, understanding that people make sense of experience through narrative.
