背景：定性研究的价值在健康研究中日益得到认可，以及采用严格策略的要求。尽管文献认识到反身性是一种有价值的、严格的策略，很少有研究揭示反身性作为一种确保定性研究严谨性和质量的策略的实际应用。目的：通过回顾作者关于定性研究的反身性日记中的13篇叙述，提供一个如何将反身性作为一种确保严谨性的策略的实际例子。方法：采用内容分析和叙事分析对数据进行处理和分析。结果：通过对假设的定性研究的分析，发现反身性作为一种策略的影响的五个主要结果，以建立严谨性标准。结论：需要进一步的研究来说明反身性如何作为一种策略应用于定性研究：i)建立严谨性标准；二)监督研究人员在产生可信结论方面的主观性。
Background: The value of qualitative research is increasingly acknowledged in health studies, as well as the demand for employing rigorous strategies. Although the literature recognises that reflexivity is a valuable and rigorous strategy, few studies unravel the practical employment of reflexivity as a strategy for ensuring rigour and quality in qualitative research.Aim: To present a practical example of how reflexivity can be employed as a strategy for ensuring rigour by reviewing 13 narratives from the author's reflexive diary on qualitative research.Methods: Content analysis and narrative analysis were used to approach and analyse data.Findings: Analysis of the posited qualitative research study found five main outcomes of the influence of reflexivity as a strategy to establish criteria of rigour.Conclusions: Further research is needed to show how reflexivity can be employed as a strategy in qualitative research to: i) establish criteria of rigour; ii) monitor the researcher's subjectivity in generating credible findings.
