Sienna Jordan · Answer 1

(A) has cross-researcher reliability.

Explanation:

Lisa is doing a qualitative study of people's online shopping behavior. Whenever such a study is done, it is necessary to compare the data found with the data found in another similar and relevant study in the area. This allows the researcher to compare whether their data is correct and credible. When Lisa found similarity in coding her research data with coding data with other completed and recognized research, she gained some trust among researchers.

From this we can conclude that the right answer is the letter A.
