Multi-source Semi-structured Interview
A multi-source semi-structured interview strategy collects qualitative data via guided, open-ended interviews from two or more distinct groups or perspectives relevant to the same phenomenon. By deliberately querying multiple vantage points — such as managers and employees, patients and clinicians, or teachers and students — the researcher can compare, contrast, and triangulate accounts, producing a richer and more balanced picture than any single-source approach allows.

Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
