Tóm tắt	The online diary method is a longitudinal data collection technique in which participants record their thoughts, experiences, behaviors, or events in structured or semi-structured entries submitted via digital platforms — such as web forms, email, or dedicated apps — at regular or event-contingent intervals. It combines the ecological validity of traditional diary research with the logistical advantages of remote, automated data collection.	A research diary is a systematic, dated log maintained by the researcher throughout a study to record methodological decisions, emergent observations, analytical hunches, and reflections on researcher positionality. Unlike a participant diary, it is authored by the researcher and functions simultaneously as a data source, an audit trail, and a reflexivity instrument.
