General guidelines

Credibility (≈ internal validity: “Are the findings believable?”)

Transferability (≈ external validity: “Will these insights travel?”)

Dependability (≈ reliability: “Would findings be consistent if the study were repeated in the same context?”)

Confirmability (≈ objectivity: “Are findings grounded in the data, not the researcher’s bias?”)
