Validity and Reliability in Research

Validity and reliability are two foundational concepts in research quality. Reliability refers to the consistency and reproducibility of measurements: do repeated applications of an instrument yield the same results? Validity refers to the truthfulness of inferences: does an instrument measure what it claims to measure

Viewshed Analysis

Viewshed analysis examines what is visible from specific locations or within a defined area using digital elevation models (DEMs) and geographic information systems (GIS). Pioneered by David Wheatley in the 1990s, the method reveals how landscape features (hilltops, valleys, water sources) controlled visibility and mov

Visual analysis

The approach uncovers how power,

Visual Elicitation Digital Ethnography

Visual elicitation digital ethnography is a qualitative research design that embeds visual elicitation techniques — using photographs, videos, or digital images as interview stimuli — within digital ethnographic fieldwork conducted in online or digitally mediated environments. Participants produce or select visual mate

Visual Elicitation Discourse Analysis

Visual Elicitation Discourse Analysis (VEDA) is a qualitative method that uses photographs or other images as interview stimuli to generate participant talk, which is then subjected to systematic discourse analysis. By anchoring conversation in concrete visual materials, VEDA accesses meanings, ideologies, and subject

Visual Elicitation Document Analysis

Visual elicitation document analysis is a qualitative method that uses visual materials — photographs, drawings, institutional images, maps, or archival visuals — embedded within or alongside documents to prompt deeper participant reflection and to enrich the interpretive reading of those documents. By treating visuals

Visual elicitation ethnography

Visual elicitation ethnography is a qualitative research design that integrates sustained ethnographic fieldwork with the systematic use of visual stimuli — photographs, video clips, drawings, or participant-produced images — to prompt deeper, more reflexive accounts from community members. By combining prolonged immer

Visual Elicitation Grounded Theory

Visual Elicitation Grounded Theory (VE-GT) is a qualitative design that augments classical grounded theory with visual elicitation techniques — photographs, drawings, video stills, or participant-produced images — as the primary stimulus for data collection. Instead of relying solely on verbal prompts, the researcher u

Visual elicitation hermeneutic phenomenology

Visual elicitation hermeneutic phenomenology is a qualitative design that combines the image-based interview technique of visual elicitation with the interpretive, context-sensitive tradition of hermeneutic phenomenology. Participants produce or select photographs, drawings, or other images related to a lived experienc

Visual Elicitation Institutional Ethnography

Visual elicitation institutional ethnography (IE) integrates photo or image elicitation techniques into Dorothy Smith's institutional ethnography framework. Participants produce or select photographs and other visual materials that represent their everyday experience within an institution; these images then anchor in-d

Visual Elicitation Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis

Visual Elicitation Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (VE-IPA) combines the idiographic, sense-making framework of Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis with visual elicitation techniques — photographs, participant-produced drawings, or other images — to deepen access to lived experience. Visuals serve as concrete

Visual Elicitation Life History Research
