Mod 3 WK 7 Threats to Validity

To prepare:

  • Review the following Learning Resources:
  • Walden Mixed Methods Dissertation Checklist. Pay particular attention to the comments about “Threats to Validity” and “Issues of Trustworthiness” as described in Chapters 3 (planning) and 4 (reporting what happened). The examples and definitions in the Checklist will help you identify possible processes to use in your study.
  • Table 7.2 in the textbook (“Examples of Quality Standards Applied to Mixed Methods Research Practice”).
  • The practice IRB pieces file in the Course Toolbox and the IRB ethics website.
  • Think about how the capstones you read in Discussion 2 did and did not meet quality standards and expectations for Walden research. How might your learning in this activity inform your own work?
  • Review the Checklist regarding the treatment of human participants, such as:
    • Institutional permissions, including IRB approvals that are needed,
    • Ethical concerns related to recruitment materials and processes and a plan to address them,
    • Ethical concerns related to data collection and/or intervention activities (These could include participants refusing participation, or early withdrawal from the study and response to any predicable adverse events and a plan to address them).
    • Describe treatment of data, (including archival data), including issues of:
      • Whether data are anonymous or confidential and any concerns related to each.
      • Protections for confidential data (data storage procedures, data dissemination, who will have access to the data, and when data will be destroyed).
      • Other ethical issues that apply (these issues could include doing a study within one’s own work environment, conflict of interest or power differentials, and justification for use of incentives).

By Day 7 of Week 7
