Gauging the Quality of Qualitative Research in Adapted Physical Activity
Michelle R. Zitomer and Donna Goodwin
Qualitative inquiry is increasingly being used in adapted physical activity research, which raises questions about how to best evaluate its quality. This article aims to clarify the distinction between quality criteria (the what) and strategies (the how) in qualitative inquiry. An electronic keyword search was used to identify articles pertaining to quality evaluation published between 1995 and 2012 (n = 204). A five phase systematic review resulted in the identification of 56 articles for detailed review. Data extraction tables were generated and analyzed for commonalities in terminology and meanings. Six flexible criteria for gauging quality were formulated: reflexivity, credibility, resonance, significant contribution, ethics, and coherence. Strategies for achieving the established criteria were also identified. It is suggested that researchers indicate the paradigm under which they are working and guidelines by which they would like readers to evaluate their work as well as what criteria can be absent without affecting the research value.
Load Accommodation Strategies and Movement Variability in Single-Leg Landing

biomechanics of the sit-to-stand and sit-to-walk movement, in people with disabilities, has been previously reported. 18 – 21 The identification of movement strategies, or the study of their effects, has been achieved via questionnaires, video observation, and motion analysis. 22 – 26 Pushing through the
Preferred Hip Strategy During Landing Reduces Knee Abduction Moment in Collegiate Female Soccer Players

. 8 , 9 Decreased proximal control at the hip is thought to result in a compensatory landing strategy that increases the demand on the quadriceps and the ligamentous passive restraints of the knee to absorb the impact forces during landing. Based on kinematic analysis to describe landing patterns in
