Research literacy is an essential competency for nursing practice and is concerned with locating, understanding, and critically evaluating evidence for application (Jakubec, 2015). Qualitative research, with goals of understanding how people make sense of their experiences and how these experiences are organized, is particularly appropriate for the discipline and practice of nursing. Although several complex frameworks for the appraisal of rigor have been developed (Ryan-Nicolls & Will, 2009; Shenton, 2004), assessing rigor in qualitative research remains a challenging research literacy activity for beginning learners, who often mistakenly apply quantitative evaluation techniques to qualitative studies (Locke, Silverman, & Spriduso, 2010). The goal of this article is to share a mnemonic strategy for the rapid and basic assessment of the rigor of qualitative research studies.
