Përmbledhja	A face-to-face research diary is a systematic reflexive log maintained by the researcher during in-person fieldwork. Unlike participant diaries, this is the researcher's own running record of observations, analytic thoughts, methodological decisions, and emotional responses captured during or immediately after direct, embodied encounters with participants or field settings. It serves simultaneously as a data source, an audit trail, and a reflexivity instrument within qualitative research.	Field notes are detailed written records created by researchers during or immediately after direct observation in a naturalistic setting. They capture what is seen, heard, and experienced — including behaviors, interactions, physical environments, and the researcher's own analytic impressions — forming the primary data source for ethnographic and observational studies.
