Abstract

Triangulation is a methodological approach that involves using multiple methods or data sources to enhance the credibility and validity of research findings. This approach is useful in qualitative studies that aim to gain a deeper understanding of complex social phenomena and to understand the intricacies of multicultural environments. By embracing diverse perspectives, methods, and data sources, researchers can verify and validate their findings, leading to more comprehensive and reliable conclusions and can navigate cultural dynamics more effectively, leading to more nuanced and culturally sensitive findings. Beyond methodological considerations, triangulation allows researchers to capture diverse perspectives and enrich their analysis, playing a crucial role in qualitative research by enhancing the credibility, validity, and depth of research findings. Additionally, it is beneficial for mixed methods designs to provide a holistic understanding of research problems. Triangulation serves as a cornerstone for advancing knowledge and understanding in multicultural research contexts.
