Abstract

ABSTRACTInformation triangulation is a complex practice involving seeking and assessment. Although a newer model, it has begun to be tested and expanded in subsequent research. This poster presents early results of a study of the information triangulation of 23 pregnant and postpartum people in Massachusetts, USA, who were making decisions about cannabis use. Interview transcripts and notes were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis, in an emic‐etic approach, and findings were compared against the six previously identified types of information triangulation. All six types were evident, although specific source types and pathways differed among populations. Further, participants described both explicit weighing of sources against each other and heuristics they used to determine source credibility.
