(Walford,2005) • “Using pseudonyms means that readers are unable to verify any of the material presented in a research report”. (Walford,2005) • “The findings of the research could be spurious generalizability”. (Jan Nespor,2000) • People could lost their ownership. (Grinyer 2002) • Impact on the integrity of the data.
