Tóm tắt	Longitudinal life history research follows the same participants across multiple points in time, collecting repeated in-depth accounts of how their life stories evolve, how they narrate past events differently over time, and how biography intersects with social change. It combines the interpretive depth of life history methodology with the temporal sensitivity of longitudinal design, capturing both the content of lived experience and its unfolding across the life course.	Oral history is a qualitative research method that collects, preserves, and interprets first-person spoken accounts of past events, experiences, and social processes. By recording in-depth interviews with individuals who witnessed or participated in historical events, oral historians document perspectives that written records often exclude. The method bridges historical scholarship and social science, treating the narrator's memory, subjectivity, and voice as primary evidence rather than as limitations to be corrected.
