Muhtasari	Participatory Reflexive Thematic Analysis (Participatory RTA) integrates Braun and Clarke's reflexive thematic analysis framework with participatory research principles, actively involving participants as co-analysts in generating, reviewing, or refining themes from qualitative data. The approach is simultaneously a method of analysis and a form of member engagement, ensuring that the themes produced are grounded in participants' own meaning-making rather than imposed solely by the researcher.	Thematic Analysis (TA) is a qualitative research methodology for identifying, analyzing, and reporting patterns (themes) in qualitative data. Developed systematically by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke (2006), TA is flexible and accessible, applicable across diverse theoretical frameworks and data types, making it one of the most widely used qualitative methods in psychology, health research, and social sciences.
