สรุป	Field-based Reflexive Thematic Analysis (field RTA) integrates ethnographic data collection — participant observation, field notes, and naturalistic interviews — with the epistemologically explicit, researcher-centred analytic framework of Braun and Clarke's Reflexive Thematic Analysis. It is used when themes must be grounded in observed social practice rather than retrospective accounts alone, placing the researcher's active, documented reflexivity at the centre of both data gathering and interpretation.	Reflexive Thematic Analysis (RTA) is a widely used qualitative method for identifying, analysing, and interpreting patterns of shared meaning — called themes — across a dataset. Developed by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke, it is theoretically flexible, works across epistemological positions, and foregrounds the researcher's active, interpretive role rather than treating themes as features that simply emerge from data. It differs from older 'codebook' approaches by treating the analyst's subjectivity as a resource rather than a source of bias to be suppressed.
