- Are the methods well-suited for this research?
- Highly appropriate

- Highly supported
- The results ultimately analyzed the root causes which face Uganda's health care system. These findings are supported by the research and are not extrapolated beyond the data presented.
- Are the data presentations, including visualizations, well-suited to represent the data?
