We also assessed viewpoints and perspectives by health care providers, including physicians, midwives, and traditional birth attendants.
For example, several researchers have observed selective deficits of hippocampal patients in tasks that were designed to assess viewpoint-independent spatial memory (e.g. [12], [14], [15], [32]).
Assessing nurses' viewpoint on productivity should be the first step towards improving nurses' productivity.
Twelve experts assess both viewpoints and offer their comments.
In this issue's Perspectives section, twelve experts assess both viewpoints.
We also aimed to assess smokers' viewpoints regarding second hand smoking and its harm.
"I'm assessing from my viewpoint, cultural viewpoint which can be very, very different to others and I would think that I'm probably not a very reliable [assessor]" (MMI A2).
Assessors were acutely conscious of the link between culture and assessor subjectivity: "I'm assessing from my viewpoint, cultural viewpoint which can be very, very different to others and I would think that I'm probably not a very reliable [assessor]" (MMI A2).
Thirdly, the potential for legitimate representation of divergent viewpoints when assessing policy pathway scenarios is limited by the fact that a single assessment process can realistically only explore a few such scenarios in-depth (in terms of multi-criteria policy evaluation) since this is typically resource-intensive.
Qualitative studies are particularly valuable, since they offer a more nuanced viewpoint on assessing the efficacy of such interventions and serve to complement existing quantitative research.
Although our results cannot be generalized to other health facilities, they provide a viewpoint for assessing the applicability of the 5S management method, particularly to government healthcare facilities in resource-poor settings where a disorderly work environment serves as a potential bottleneck in providing adequate healthcare services.
