Feedback:
Confirmability refers to objectivity, achieved through congruence or agreement between two or more independent evaluators about the data's accuracy, relevance, or meaning. Dependability refers to the stability of data over time. Transferability refers to the applicability of data to other groups.

Answer to Question 2

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.
