D
Feedback:
Credibility or the believability of data refers to confidence in the truth value of the data and data interpretation. Dependability is the reliability of data over time. Confirmability refers to establishing that the data objectively represent the participants' information and view point, and not that of the researcher. Transferability is the extent to which qualitative findings can be transferred to or have applicability in other settings or groups.
