Description

Have you ever read a research article where the findings seemed interesting, but the method section left you with more questions than answers? Have you ever wondered how much detail is really necessary to convince readers that your qualitative research is rigorous and credible?

We’ll unpack why a clear, detailed, and transparent methods section is essential in building trust with your reader. I’ll walk you through what reviewers and editors are looking for and how to avoid the common traps that weaken good qualitative work.


In this episode, you’ll learn how to:



  • Write method sections that build trust and credibility with your readers.

  • Avoid the pitfalls of vague or incomplete descriptions that can sink your article.
