You can use two top techniques to validate your research findings. One is called coding checks and another is member checking. In coding checks you will be identifying the reliability of the process used to develop categories for coding qualitative data. This help in determination of themes emerging from the data. Second method is member check. This method involves verifying credibility by asking the research participants to review the research report.

Triangulation is the best method. In this method, you have to analyse multiple data sources to develop a final understanding and interpretation of your findings. First validate the methods used for data collection followed by checking for consistency of the data. Ask peers to review the findings and in the last step build final theoretical understanding.

While validating results consider reflectivity(looking back at possibilities that exist), reflexivity (ensuring awareness of subjectivity impact) and reliability (does research conform methodology expectations).
