Data triangulation

Research objective	Null hypothesis	Findings of quantitative analysis	Themes generated as per qualitative analysis	Triangulation achieved/not achieved
To investigate the impact of strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of deduction	There is no significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of deduction	Alternative Hypothesis Accepted: There is a significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of deduction	• Integration of Signature Strengths with Critical Thinking Sub-Component: “Deduction” • Improved Critical Thinking Skills	Achieved
To investigate the impact of strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of meaning	There is no significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of meaning	Alternative Hypothesis Accepted: There is a significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of meaning	• Integration of Signature Strengths with Critical Thinking Sub-Component: “Meaning” • Improved Critical Thinking Skills	Achieved
To investigate the impact of strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of observation-credibility	There is no significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of observation-credibility	Alternative Hypothesis Accepted: There is a significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of observation-credibility	• Integration of Signature Strengths with Critical Thinking Subcomponent: “Observation- Credibility” • Improved Critical Thinking Skills	Achieved
To investigate the impact of strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of induction	There is no significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of induction	Alternative Hypothesis Accepted: There is a significant impact of the strength-based program on the critical thinking subcomponent of induction	• Integration of Signature Strengths with Critical Thinking Sub-Component: “Induction” • Improved Critical Thinking Skills	Achieved
