Since reliability and validity are rooted in positivist perspective then they should be redefined for their use in a naturalistic approach. Although the tests and measures used to establish the validity and reliability of quantitative research cannot be applied to qualitative research, there are ongoing debates about whether terms such as validity, reliability and generalisability are appropriate to evaluate qualitative research.2â4 In the broadest context these terms are applicable, with validity referring to the integrity ⦠0000000016 00000 n

Evaluating the quality of research is essential if findings are to be utilised in practice and incorporated into care delivery. The purpose of establishing reliability, validity, and/or . For all secondary data, a detailed assessment of reliability and validity involve an appraisal of methods used to collect data [Saunders et al., 2009].
