Validation in Inquiry-Guided Research: The Role of Exemplars in Narrative Studies.
Mishler, Elliot G.
Harvard Educational Review, v60 n4 p415-42 Nov 1990
Defines validation as a process by which researchers evaluate the trustworthiness of a study through a tacit understanding of actual practices. Proposes an approach to validation based on the concept of exemplars--concrete models of research practice. Uses three studies of narrative--life history, oral narrative, and narrative strategy--as representative exemplars. (123 references) (SK)
