Why is reflexivity important?
Benefits of reflexivity included accountability, trustworthiness, richness, clarity, ethics, support, and personal growth—beneficial for the integrity of the research process, the quality of the knowledge generated, the ethical treatment of those being studied, and the researcher’s own well-being and personal growth.
