Data triangulation validates your data and research by cross verifying the same information. This triangulation of data strengthens your research paper because your data has increased credibility and validity.
The triangulation of data strengthens your research and allows you to write a better research paper because of the following benefits:
+ Additional sources of information often give more insight into a topic
Inadequacies found in one-source data is minimized when multiple sources confirm the same data
+ Multiple sources provide verification and validity while complementing similar data
+ More comprehensive data is obtained
+ Data and information is supported in multiple places/types of research, which makes it easier to analyze data to draw conclusions and outcomes
+ Inconsistencies in data sets are more easily recognized
