Detailed explanation-1: -Data triangulation is the use of a variety of data sources, including time, space and persons, in a study. Findings can be corroborated and any weaknesses in the data can be compensated for by the strengths of other data, thereby increasing the validity and reli-ability of the results.
Detailed explanation-2: -Example: Methodological triangulation In your study, you use behavioral, survey, and neural data to get a complete picture of what motivates people to behave cooperatively.
Detailed explanation-3: -Investigator triangulation: Involving multiple researchers in collecting or analysing data. Theory triangulation: Using varying theoretical perspectives in your research. Methodological triangulation: Using different methodologies to approach the same topic.
Detailed explanation-4: -External validity triangulation is the process of comparing diverse data sets, results or research methods about a particular issue or topic. By widening a sample group and covering more variables, a researcher’s study can be strengthened.
