3.6 Data Analysis
To answer the research questions, both data from table and interview checklists were employed. Then, to analyze the data, codes and categorizations
were needed. The codes were all content and attributes related to gender awareness in the textbooks. All contents and attributes which were not associated
with the issue were excluded. Besides, the categories were based on the characteristics of the content and attributes, for instance, profession, possession,
place, and etc. Thus, the data analyzed were in the form of adjective, action verbs, PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
and noun. However, the primary data were only from table checklist. The interview checklists were only supporting data to make the study more valid.
3.7 Triangulation
To make this study valid and reliable, triangulation was employed to make emerge trustworthiness. “Triangulation may be defined as the use of two or more
methods of data collection in the study of some aspect of human behaviour”
Cohen et al., 2007: 141. According to Guba 1981, trustworthiness can be achieved through considering credibility, reliability, and transferability. In this
study, the credibility was having consultation with gender and material designer experts, advisors, and colleague. Then, reliability was depicted in a consistency of
coding and categorization. Since the main instrument is the researcher, the table checklists should be understandable. Therefore, it should be piloted.
Transferability was confirmation with the authors; in this case, the interview checklists were employed.
