Muhtasari	Field-based autoethnography is a qualitative research design in which the researcher immerses themselves in a specific physical or social setting and draws on their own lived experience within that field to produce analytically reflexive accounts. It blends the systematic observational practices of ethnographic fieldwork with the first-person introspective voice of autoethnography, generating knowledge that is simultaneously personal, cultural, and contextually grounded.	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.
