Rezumat	Visual elicitation life history research is a qualitative method that combines the biographical depth of life history interviewing with the evocative power of photographs, personal objects, or other visual materials. Participants select or bring images that are meaningful to their life story; these visuals then serve as prompts during in-depth interviews, unlocking memories and meanings that words alone might not surface. The result is a richly layered biographical narrative grounded in concrete, participant-chosen artefacts.	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.
