Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conducting all aspects of the research alone may raise questions about the reliability and validity of the results, as there is no peer review or outside verification of the findings. Working with a team of colleagues or using multiple researchers to analyze the same data can improve the trustworthiness and credibility of the study. The other choices do not necessarily raise concerns about the trustworthiness of the results. In fact, including a diverse group of participants, acknowledging exceptions to the overall conclusions, and selecting participants from different types of institutions can enhance the generalizability and richness of the findings.
