    Abstract
    AIM • Demonstrate how ‘threads of validity’ may be woven into academic research by using both TOC-based and qualitative research methods GAP • Many studies have sought to enhance validity in qualitative research • Yet, researchers still face many difficulties ensuring validity in their research : – Constructing initial workable research questions – Research design • collecting the right data – Data analysis • making sense of the data – Communicating the findings clearly • Researchers have not addressed how threads of validation may be woven into the various stages of the research process QUESTION: • Can TOC enhance validity in qualitative research and vice versa? Demonstration projects – 4 Masters projects – 3 PhD projects • Methodology – Qualitative research – TOC methodology
    Keywords:
    academic research, theory of constraints (TOC), qualitative research, research design, validity, core constraints, tertiary research
