Introduction
What is Confirmation? Confirmation is the investigation of theory, in operation, to determine its accuracy.
Inputs to Confirming Theories • • A set of concepts Relationships specified Measurement criteria specified An instance in which to study theory in action ……. in a word, it is: Research!
Approaches to Confirming Theories • Quantitative • Qualitative • Mixed Methods
The Confirm Phase of Theory Building
Outputs of the Confirm Phase • A judgment about the accuracy and adequacy of theory. • Multiple instances of evidence (at least two) to support the judgment. • Interpretation of what the judgment about theory means for using it in practice.
Quality Indicators for the Confirm Phase • Comprehensiveness – The complete theory and all of its relationships are studied. • Empirical Validity – Experiments support theory or show where it is lacking. • Practicality – The utility of theory for practitioners trying to solve the same or or similar problems.
Conclusion • The Confirm Phase requires the investigation of theory and enough evidence to make sound judgments about its accuracy and utility. • This can take years to complete – usually it results in modifications to increase the fit and utility of theory.
