摘要	Digital Life History Research is a qualitative biographical method that investigates how individuals construct, narrate, and preserve their life stories using digital tools and environments. It extends the classical life history tradition into online spaces — gathering data through video interviews, asynchronous email narratives, digital diaries, social media timelines, and multimedia life documents — to understand personal and social experience across time.	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.
