Write a discussion paper on Trustworthiness in Qualitative Research.Now you are ready to begin writing! For this assignment, your white paper must serve as an educational tool to engage, inform, and convince your readers about the importance of the trustworthiness of qualitative data analysis and also inform them of all the various ways that the four trustworthiness criteria (credibility, transfer ability, dependability, and confirmability) must be addressed. Ensure in the work that you cite scholarly, peer-reviewed sources.
As you put pen to paper, remember that your white paper should include all the following components:
Introduction. A compelling introduction. This section provides the background information required for the audience to grasp the problem, which is more fully discussed in the next paragraph. In this white paper, your problem or issue to be addressed is the trustworthiness of Qualitative Data. NOTE: It is not a problem related to your topic.
Problem. A paragraph discussing the problem or issue. The problem or issue needs to be clearly defined and placed within a context to ensure that it is clearly understood by the reader. (The context can be a study you have previously reviewed.) In this section, it is essential that you support your description with research-based evidence.
Four Criteria of Trustworthiness. For this paper, each criterion of Trustworthiness of Qualitative Data (credibility, transfer ability, dependability, and confirm ability) should be a heading. You will have body paragraphs that discuss in detail all four qualitative trustworthiness criteria and how you would approach and mitigate potential threats to these criteria by detailing all the specific steps you can take to avoid or minimize these threats. These threats present potential limitations in your study.
Conclusion. The conclusion summarizes the white paper’s major ideas. Here, you will also provide recommendations based on the solution.
References (on a new page). All sources used to develop the white paper must be cited in this section. These references offer your reader content for further research. Remember, all citations and references must follow APA format and style.
For this assignment, your white paper must serve as an educational tool to engage, inform, and convince your readers about the importance of the trustworthiness of qualitative data analysis and also inform them of all the various ways that the four trustworthiness criteria must be addressed. In developing and writing your paper, please respond to the following two prompts:
Expand your knowledge of the four qualitative trustworthiness criteria, by exploring how they relate to qualitative data analysis:
credibility
dependability
confirm ability
transfer ability
Provide an overview of the strategies that can be used in qualitative data analysis to address each of the criteria above. Discuss how you would approach and mitigate potential threats to the trustworthiness of your study’s findings by detailing all the specific steps you will take to avoid or minimize researcher bias.
