Abstract Issues of trustworthiness in qualitative leisure research, often demonstrated through particular techniques of reliability and/or validity, is often either nonexistent, unsubstantial, or unexplained. Rather than prescribing what reliability and/or validity should look like, researchers should attend to the overall trustworthiness of qualitative research by more directly addressing issues associated with reliability and/or validity, as aligned with larger issues of ontological, epistemological, and paradigmatic affiliation. In reviewing contemporary qualitative research methodologies, we present a variety of reliability and validity techniques that might lead to increased trustworthiness in analysis and representation of findings. Qualitative leisure scholars are encouraged to align paradigmatic assumptions, theoretical orientations, methodological practices, analytical techniques, and representational practices to engage trustworthiness techniques that can be assessed for quality and credibility. This conceptualization offers a useful pedagogical model and supports common language of qualitative preferred practices, while providing space and openness for growth, development, improvisation, and critique.

定性研究中的情境化信度和效度：在休闲研究中走向更严格和值得信赖的定性社会科学

摘要 定性休闲研究中的可信度问题，通常通过可靠性和/或有效性的特定技术来证明，通常要么不存在，要么没有实质意义，要么无法解释。研究人员不应规定可靠性和/或有效性应该是什么样子，而是应该通过更直接地解决与可靠性和/或有效性相关的问题来关注定性研究的整体可信度，与本体论、认识论和范式从属关系的更大问题保持一致。在回顾当代定性研究方法时，我们提出了各种可靠性和有效性技术，这些技术可能会提高分析和表示结果的可信度。鼓励定性休闲学者调整范式假设、理论方向、方法实践、分析技术和代表性实践，以采用可评估质量和可信度的可信技术。这种概念化提供了一个有用的教学模型，支持定性首选实践的通用语言，同时为成长、发展、即兴创作和批评提供空间和开放性。
