In this case, the difference in the HRs between the analyses based on the total data material and the subcohort of only prospectively collected data is not as much a result of the mode of data collection as a reflection of the fact that the total data material encompasses the very early miscarriages.
Immersion/crystallisation is a methodological strategy suitable for clinical primary care research, entailing repetitive cycles of data collection, data analysis, reflection and refinement of strategies, followed by further data collection.
Collaboration is evident in shared processes of data collection and analysis, reflection on the data, and action planning and implementation [ 18].
The part of the e-portfolio that has been used for data collection was a reflection on how they perceived they had fulfilled their individual learning outcomes.
The latter is heightened for (3) since the CCD detector was moved farther away for data collection, which reduces reflection intensities especially in the high-angle shells and affects both completeness and redundancy in those shells.
Focus groups were chosen as the data collection method since reflections in groups were a major element in the program, and we wanted to explore the participants' experiences with discussions and interaction between the participants in the therapy group.
Taking place over 3 years (2011 2013), the longitudinal nature of data collection will allow reflections and sense making to be recorded over time, as the DF role and its impact develops, and reacts to the changing NHS and social care infrastructure and climate.
AR proceeds through a helical spiral of planning, action, data collection, analysis, and critical reflection and several cycles may be needed to address the problem or issue under investigation [ 15].
To examine both the process and outcomes of the action research, the study employed a combination of observation, primary data collection, and participant and researcher reflection.
Interviews also allowed for discussion and reflection during data collection.
