To ensure consistency of interpretation, interviews were conducted by the investigators themselves.
Human-generated data Medical data collected from Electronic Medical Records, physician's notes (paper documents) and interpretations, interviews with the patient, etc. are examples of human-generated data.
The researchers met frequently to debrief their observations and to explore any particular disciplinary perspectives they may have brought to their interpretation of interview or observational data.
A key component of qualitative analysis is "member checking" in which research team interpretation of interview content is reviewed with participants to clarify and ensure accuracy.
Our patient advisory group (PAG) will be closely involved with this work package, providing input into the development of study materials (eg, DCE items) and interpretation of interview data.
Third, one of the investigators (SV) intended to, and now has, set up an integrative medical center at an academic institution which may have biased the collection and interpretation of interview data.
Feedback from providers served as a member check for the accuracy of the interpretation of Interview 1 results and as a check that the interface would realistically fit in regular practice work flows (i.e., external validity) [ 30].
The reading and interpretation of interview texts should be performed as open-mindedly as possible to insure that the different interpretations in the principles of Beauchamp & Childress [ 11] and Rendtorff & Kemp [ 12] may both contribute to an understanding of the lived experience of the interviewees.
