Përmbledhja	Interpretive autoethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher uses systematic analysis of their own lived experience as the primary data source, moving beyond evocative personal narrative to connect personal meaning with broader cultural, social, or theoretical frameworks. Drawing on Leon Anderson's analytic strand and building on Ellis and Bochner's foundational work, it treats the researcher's self-account as both evidence and interpretive lens, subjecting personal stories to disciplined ethnographic and theoretical scrutiny to generate insights that extend beyond the individual case.	Ethnography is a qualitative research tradition in which a researcher immerses themselves in a social group or community over an extended period — typically three to six months or longer — to study its culture, values, and behaviours in their natural setting. Originating in social and cultural anthropology, and consolidated as a rigorous method by Bronisław Malinowski in the early twentieth century, ethnography produces rich, contextualised accounts of how people live, work, and make meaning together.
