Question

The question “Was the analysis carried out systematically and comprehensively?” is most relevant to which of the qualitative quality criteria discussed in class?

		Confirmability
		Dependability
		Transferability
		Credibility

Answer 1

Correct answer is option D - CREDIBILITY

Credibility is first criteria in which strategies such as prolonged engagement , observation , triangulation and member check is used

In member check feeding data , analytical concepts interpretation and conclusion to member of those group from whom data was originally obtained. It strengthen the data because researcher and respondent look data with different eyes. So the statement " was the analysis carried out systematically and comprehensively" is ensured by member check which is strategy of Credibility.

Other options are incorrect as

Dependability and confirmability strategy is audit trail which transparently describing the research steps taken from start of research to the development and reporting of finding . Basically keep records of research path .

Transferability strategy is thick description , describing not only behaviour and experience but context as well so that behaviour may become meaningful to an outsider

Hence all other options are not related to statement . So the correct option is D - Credibility
