Using the TACT Framework to Learn the Principles of Rigour in
Qualitative Research
Assessing the quality of qualitative research to ensure
rigour in the findings is critical, especially if findings are to
contribute to theory and be utilised in practice. However, teaching
students concepts of rigour and how to apply them to their research
is challenging. This article presents a generic framework of rigour
with four critical dimensions—Trustworthiness, Auditability,
Credibility and Transferability (TACT) intended to teach issues of
rigour to postgraduate students and those new to qualitative
research methodology. The framework enables them to explore the key
dimensions necessary for assessing the rigour of qualitative
research studies and checklist questions against each of the
dimensions. TACT was offered through 10 workshops, attended by 64
participants. Participants positively evaluated the workshops and
reported that the workshops enable them to learn the principles of
qualitative research and better understanding issues of rigour. Work
presented in the article is part of a large research programme
investigating the pedagogy of research methods in higher
education.
期刊介绍:
The Electronic Journal of Business Research Methods (EJBRM) provides perspectives on topics relevant to research methods applied in the field of business and management. Through its publication the journal contributes to the development of theory and practice. The journal accepts academically robust papers that contribute to the area of research methods applied in business and management research. Papers submitted to the journal are double-blind reviewed by members of the reviewer committee or other suitably qualified readers. The Editor reserves the right to reject papers that, in the view of the editorial board, are either of insufficient quality, or are not relevant enough to the subject area. The editor is happy to discuss contributions before submission. The journal publishes work in the categories described below. Research Papers: These may be qualitative or quantitative, empirical or theoretical in nature and can discuss completed research findings or work in progress. Case Studies: Case studies are welcomed illustrating business and management research methods in practise. View Points: View points are less academically rigorous articles usually in areas of controversy which will fuel some interesting debate. Conference Reports and Book Reviews: Anyone who attends a conference or reads a book that they feel contributes to the area of Business Research Methods is encouraged to submit a review for publication.
