Tóm tắt	Visual elicitation biographical research combines the life-history interview tradition with image-based elicitation techniques. Participants bring or choose photographs, drawings, personal objects, or other visual artefacts that represent moments and meanings in their lives. These visuals serve as prompts in extended biographical interviews, releasing richer, more emotionally grounded narratives than verbal questioning alone typically achieves. The method is used in education, health, migration studies, and other fields where lived experience over time is central.	Narrative analysis is a qualitative research method, synthesised canonically by Catherine Kohler Riessman (2008), that examines how individuals storise their lived experiences and construct meaning through the telling. Drawing on life history, biographical, and narrative inquiry traditions, it treats the story itself — not just its content — as the unit of analysis, attending to temporal sequence, plot structure, and the social context in which a narrative is produced.
