Triangulation can be defined as a kind of cross-checking of information and conclusions in research, brought about by the use of multiple procedures or sources.
Forms of triangulation
- method triangulation
- data triangulation
- research triangulation
- theory triangulation
Triangulation is basically checking if the study is credible (trustworthy) or not.

What is the meaning of instrument in research method?
A research instrument is what you use to collect the information in a qualitative field study or observation. It helps you keep track of what you observe and how to report it. It must be both valid and precise.
What skills do scientist use to study about the natural world?
Scientists employ both quantitative and qualitative methodologies in all forms of research. Quantitative methods are measurements and creating mathematical models of systems and variable relationships. Qualitative study involves observational and characteristic findings.
Is quasi-experimental design a qualitative study?
Quasi experiments aren't really experiments they are better known as difference studies. Experimental research is using different experiments to find an answer or solution.
What is the justification of a research study?
This explains the reasons why the study is being carried out.

Case study is it a qualitative study?
Case study is not a qualitative study - it is a research strategy which use qualitative and quantative data as well. You select a data sources if it provides good arguments. Knud r.
What is triangulation in a qualitative research study?
It refers to the application and combination of several research methodologies in the study of the same phenomenon. By combining multiple observers, theories, methods, and empirical materials, researchers can hope to overcome the weakness or intrinsic biases and the problems that come from single method, single-observer and single-theory studies.
Is ethnographic research qualitative or quantitave?

How are qualitative and quantitative research alike?
For example, in qualitative research you resort to a case study approach, while in quantitative research you may resort to survey method. Quantitative research largely deals with volumes of data collected from primary or secondary sources. Qualitative research will focus on descriptions, contents, views, perspectives and its analysis.
Why do we study quantitative methods?
much more quantitative than the qualitative method. those of us who understand basic science and math realize that qualitative measures are usually total BS.
Quantitative research is more important than qualitative research because it results in statistical information and conclusive findings?
Qualitative versus Quantitative has been always fiercely debated in the academic field. It is really what you as the researcher think it is important. There is no right or wrong answer. Until I have taken a qualitative research class at USF I thought that quantitative research is more "scientific" than qualitative research. I thought that qualitative research should be should be done before quantitative research. Well, nothing is sure in this world, and we don't even agree in the notion of objectivity. Since I came to USF I learned to question everything, which I guess it was a good lesson. I was pleasantly surprised by John W. Creswell's book about qualitative research. He also says that qualitative research allows the researcher to study deeply a problem and go beyond the numbers. I started to like qualitative research because it is more flexible, interactive, the research design can be modified and it involves fieldwork (patients should be interviewed in their natural setting). Therefore, a qualitative research can provide a more complex answer to certain problems such as minority and race. For example, can racism be easily answered? No, it calls for a qualitative study because it may involve economical, political, and cultural and gender related problems. I guess journalists mainly use qualitative research if they write a longer and deeper article about topics like race, unemployment, etc. I realize that numbers do not mean always the "whole" picture. I would use qualitative research methods if I want to do a deeper research, if I want to gain a deeper understanding of a problem using multiple views.
Is a case control study qualitative or quantitative?
A case-control study is qualitative. This is because this kind of study is an observational study, meaning that it involves observing how groups differ in their behavior. The word qualitative measures the quality of something rather than the quantity (qualitative), meaning that a qualitative study measures their data through characteristics rather than numbers.
Define qualitative research?
Qualitative research is defined as being a way of gathering information based on observations made during a study rather than the research data itself. This is a common type of study done in social sciences.
How does semiotics relate to qualitative research?
Semiotics is the study of human signs ,gestures and symbols in human communication in language and non linguistic intrinsically with the production of qualitative meaning in combination of structuralism that gives insight to the contextual nature of human communication.As a scientific discipline of research it is qualitative in nature.
Does qualitative research not control variables?
In qualitative research, researchers do not typically control variables in the same way as in quantitative research. Instead, they aim to explore and understand the complexities and nuances of a phenomenon without manipulating variables. The focus is on gaining in-depth insights and understanding the context in which the research is conducted.
