Tóm tắt	Longitudinal Visual Analysis (LVA) is a qualitative research design that systematically collects, organises, and interprets visual data — photographs, video, maps, or diagrams — gathered at two or more time points to document change, continuity, or transformation in people, places, or social phenomena. By anchoring analysis to the temporal dimension of images, LVA goes beyond what a single-moment visual study can reveal, making visible patterns of development or decay that are otherwise invisible in a snapshot.	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.
