NSE 222 Weeks 8-12 Questions and
Answers Graded A+
Why do we need trustworthiness in qualitative research? - answer •As a research
reader, we have to judge the quality of the data that were collected (rigor)
•A researcher is said to demonstrate trustworthiness when the findings of the study are
a true representation of participants' realities backed by accurate description of
procedures undertaken during the research process
What are the 5 terms for trustworthiness in qualitative research? - answer •Credibility
•Confirmability
•Dependability
•Transferability
•Authenticity
What is credibility? - answer Credibility is a characteristic of qualitative research that
refers to the accuracy, validity, and soundness of data.
- confidence in the 'truth' of the findings
What is confirmability? - answer Confirmability represents a degree of neutrality or
the extent to which the findings of a study are shaped by the respondents and not
researcher bias, motivation, or interest.
- QL researchers keeps detailed notes as to where data came from, how data was
interpreted, and findings obtained, etc. so readers can trace the data to their sources.
- Auditability is the characteristic of a qualitative study that allows another researcher or
a reader to follow the thinking or conclusions of the investigator
What is dependability? - answer Refers to the degree to which a study can yield
similar results if repeated with similar methods and techniques
- Readers can follow how researchers made decisions by evaluating the adequacy of
the analysis.
- showing that the findings are consistent and could be repeated
What is transferability? - answer Refers to the degree to which study findings are
applicable outside the study situation and the degree to which the results are
meaningful to individuals not involved in the research.
- The findings from one study/context can be transferred to another that is similar in
context/participants.
- Knowledge can be transferred from one context to another
What is authenticity? - answer Authenticity refers to fairness in the presentation in
that all value conflicts, differences, and views of the participants are noted in the
analysis.
, What are the techniques for ensuring credibility? - answer - Member checking
- Peer debriefing (also referred to as peer review)
- Prolonged Engagement/Persistent Observation
- Negative case analysis/Deviant case analysis
What are the techniques for ensuring confirmability? - answer - Triangulation
- Audit trail
- Reflexivity
What is the technique for ensuring dependability? - answer Inquiry audit
What is the technique for ensuring transferability? - answer Thick description
What is member checking? - answer - This is when data, analytic categories,
interpretations and conclusions are tested with members of those groups from whom
the data were originally obtained.
- This can be done both formally and informally as opportunities for member checks
may arise during the normal course of observation and conversation.
- Typically, member checking is viewed as a technique for establishing the validity of an
account.
- Lincoln and Guba posit that this is the most crucial technique for establishing
credibility. However, this technique is controversial.
What is peer debriefing? - answer - "It is a process of exposing oneself to a
disinterested peer in a manner paralleling an analytical sessions and for the purpose of
exploring aspects of the inquiry that might otherwise remain only implicit within the
inquirer's mind" (Lincoln & Guba, 1985, p. 308)
- This is a process allows the researcher to seek for alternative perspectives from the
research team about the data and findings
What is prolonged engagement? - answer - Spending sufficient time in the field to
learn or understand the culture, social setting, or phenomenon of interest.
- This involves spending adequate time observing various aspects of a setting, speaking
with a range of people, and developing relationships and rapport with members of the
culture.
- Development of rapport and trust facilitates understanding and co-construction of
meaning between researcher and members of a setting.
- Prolonged engagement provides scope; persistent observation provides depth
What is a negative case analysis? - answer - This involves searching for and
discussing elements of the data that do not support or appear to contradict patterns or
explanations that are emerging from data analysis.
- Deviant case analysis is a process for refining an analysis until it can explain or
account for a majority of cases.
