Abstract

ABSTRACT Debates regarding quality in qualitative research are longstanding. There are continued calls for additional quality indicators that account for the heterogeneity of qualitative methodologies. In this introduction to the special issue, we take up the idea that quality criteria are often specific to a given methodological approach. Thus, included within this special issue, and overviewed in this introductory paper, are seven articles that outline the quality criteria related to specific qualitative methodologies, including grounded theory, thematic analysis, narrative methodology, interpretative phenomenological analysis, video-reflexive ethnography, discursive psychology, and conversation analysis and interpersonal process recall.
