Several researchers (Donmoyer, 1990, Creswell, 2005; Falk & Guenther, 2007; Metcalfe, 2005; Patton, 2002) define generalization in new terms that better suit qualitative research because the data they cannot be exactly duplicated, but the theory behind the findings is that information can be transferred. Therefore, a suggested term similar to the generalization of quantitative data is the transferability of qualitative data (Lincoln & Guba, 1985). The context of the new research may be different, which prevents literal translation, but the theory underlying the findings can be replicated across multiple studies, which allows for comparable translation (Falk & Guenther, 2007). Each new study performed that attempts to replicate the findings of a previous study provides further evidence that begins to show predictable patterns that ultimately build on the theory, which is a generalization of
