Relevance and quality criteria
| Criteria | Questions |
|---|---|
| Contribution | Is the article novel and original? Are the presented results of significant importance and impact to advancement in the field of research? |
| Construct validity | Did the researchers put the construct they intended to study within a semantic net? Did they identify correct operational measures for the construct? |
| Transparency | Does the article report sufficient information in methodological choices for the study to be replicated? |
| Data quality | Did they researchers explore different sources of knowledge? Does data strongly support arguments? |
| Theorizing | Do researchers make explicit the process by which they move from data to explanation/understanding and theory building? Is the conclusion logically supported by the obtained results? |
| Confirmability | Did the researchers ground their conclusions in data by showing where the data came from and how they were transformed into findings? |
| Generalizability | Is the attitude to the generalization in line with researcher’s philosophical stances? If researchers claim generalizability, do these follow logically and/or theoretically from the data? |
| Transferability | Does the study report high contextualization? Is the context integrated into the explanation? |
