The characteristic of reliability refers to the accuracy and consistency of the information. If the information is free from error or bias, it can be considered reliable, and therefore useful and meaningful for decision making. Relevance refers to whether the information is applicable to the specific decision at hand, verifiability refers to the ability to confirm the accuracy of the information through independent sources, and truthful is not a commonly used characteristic to describe information.
