Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reliability of ethnographic and clinical studies can be determined by having judges examine the evidence and patterns identified by the researchers to see if they agree with them. This involves evaluating the plausibility and grounding of the themes and patterns in evidence. Comparing responses on separate occasions or measuring quantitative scores may not provide relevant information about the reliability of these types of studies. Comparing answers on different halves of the same measure may measure internal consistency reliability, but may not provide insight into the reliability of ethnographic and clinical studies.
