Discuss the role of credibility in assessing qualitative research
What will be an ideal response?
The credibility criterion involves establishing that the results of qualitative research are believable from the perspective of the participant in the research. In other words, to what extent do the results adequately reflect the participants' experience? Because the purpose of qualitative research is to describe or understand the phenomena of interest from the participant's eyes, in this view the participants are the only ones who can legitimately judge the credibility of the results.
