An in-person interview, by nature, does not guarantee anonymity as the interviewer and interviewee are face-to-face and can easily identify each other. Validity and reliability are both aspects that can be improved through proper methodology and techniques, but they are not guaranteed solely by an in-person interview. Confidentiality can also be maintained in an in-person interview through ethical practices and agreements between the interviewer and interviewee, but it is not a guarantee. Therefore, the only option that is never guaranteed in an in-person interview is anonymity.
