Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
In a member check, researchers give participants feedback about emerging interpretations and then obtain participants' reactions. Other strategies for enhancing quality during the coding and analysis of qualitative data include investigator triangulation (independent coding and analysis of some of the data by two or more researchers); external validation through peer debriefings (exposing the inquiry to the searching questions of peers); and launching an inquiry audit (a formal scrutiny of audit trail documents by an independent auditor).
