- 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
