Research data and materials that are commonly accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings must be retained by Yale researchers for three (3) years after publication of the findings or until all required final reports (e.g., progress and financial) for the project have been submitted to the sponsor, unless a longer period is provisioned.
Generally, research data and materials that are commonly accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings must be retained by Yale researchers for three (3) years after publication of the findings or all required final reports (e.g., progress and financial) for the project have been submitted to the sponsor.
Sharing of research data and materials that are commonly accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings with members of the University community, external collaborators, and others for legitimate purposes, is a key precept of the University.
Sharing of research data and materials that are commonly accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings with members of the University community, external collaborators, and others for legitimate purposes, is encouraged, often required by law, and subject to Yale policy and to legislative, regulatory, contractual, ethical or other obligations.
The case study research design included document review of the library's wayfinding information system; unobtrusive observation of library user wayfinding behavior; intensive interviews with library users to discuss their views on wayfinding in the library; and an expert review with library staff and a library wayfinding and signage expert to validate research findings.
While such initiatives can effectively bridge knowledge gaps and facilitate best practices across established and emerging research disciplines and therapeutic areas, concerns remain on how these improve on the historical process of independent replication in validating research findings and their potential to inhibit scientific innovation.
It enables datasets to be shared and reused, and provides a basis for validating research findings.
They can also be used in conjunction with other methodological techniques for triangulation purposes thus helping to validate research findings [ 20].
In contrast to approaches for validating research findings, such as member checking [ 10- 12] or triangulation [ 12, 13], we focus on ITR as a methodological approach for verifying the accuracy of the interview transcript before it is formally coded and analyzed.
Our use of validated assessments of clinical reasoning where possible helps to validate the research findings, however there are limitations in these existing tools to measure clinical reasoning.
However, further examination of how ITR could be potentially integrated with established methods for validating qualitative research findings, such as member checking, is needed.
