%X This  paper  discusses  a  research  methods  approach  to  investigate  phenomena  in interpreting  studiesbased  on  a  triangulation  of  qualitative  methods.  It  discusses  the  concept  of triangulation, as developed in the social sciences by Campbell and Fiske (1959), with an emphasis on the process of combining and integrating multiple methods. It reviews previous applications oftriangulation  in translationand  interpretingstudies  and  describes  the  advantages  of  systematic triangulation  for  empirical  research.  The  implications  of  this  approach  for  future  research  in public   service   interpreting concerningthe   trustworthiness   of   the   interpretative   nature   of qualitative inquiry are also discussed. To demonstrate the practical application of triangulation in public  service  interpreting  settings,  this  paper  draws  on  a  case  study  conducted  by  the  author where  triangulation  of participantobservation,  focus  groups  and  audio-recordedinteractionwas employed.  The  integration  of  the  different  research  methods utilized,  as  well  as  the  findings derived by triangulation, are illustrated through examples from this study.
