Quantitatively trained researchers are often asked to evaluate qualitative proposals and manuscripts without necessarily having the tools to do so, and many qualitatively trained researchers could better communicate the rigor of their methods to reviewers with peer-reviewed criteria. Therefore, having a shared ‘toolbox’ of criteria to draw from benefits, everyone.

In this hour's presentation, we will give a lecture on published criteria for rigorous qualitative research.
