The standards used to evaluate qualitative research have been a recurring theme in qualitative research literature for more than 20 years. Included in the discussion of these standards are the qualities of trustworthiness (Y. Lincoln & E. Guba, 1985). More recently, methodological and analytic rigor and coherence have also been emphasized (e.g., M. Poggenpoel & C. P. H. Myburgh, 2005). These factors are discussed and conceptualized as presentational rigor . Implications of presentational rigor for designing and conducting qualitative research and preparing manuscripts that are more likely to be published in Counselor Education and Supervision are discussed.
