accuracy and respect for their perspectives. It empowers participants, enhances transparency,
validates interpretations, and upholds ethical principles, ultimately strengthening the credibility
4. Reflexivity -involves researchers critically examining their biases and assumptions, ensuring
enhancing the validity and credibility of the research process and findings.
5. Rich Description -involves providing detailed and vivid accounts of the context, participants,
and research process. It enhances understanding, transparency, and empathy, enriching the
research outcomes and respecting the complexity and diversity of human experiences.
6. Inter-Rater Reliability -ensures consistency among coders or raters when analyzing data. It
8. Saturation -it signifies the point at which data collection has reached a point of theoretical
rigor, validates constructs, optimizes resource allocation, and honors participants contributions
and time. Saturation contributes to the credibility, depth, and ethical integrity of the research
outcomes.
