At the end of the focus group meeting, the researcher read out all formulated preferences and again asked for confirmation (participant check).
This 'on the spot' participant check was chosen because, in our experience, people with ID appreciate discussions and make suggestions during group meetings or individual interviews, but checking the accuracy of interpretations with them on a later occasion is difficult.
As an alternative, a participant check was performed during the meeting and interviews, and the participants were asked if they could agree with the proposed wording of the preferences.
Another strength is that a multiple methods design is used, combining qualitative and quantitative, where internal validity of qualitative data is ensured by participant check and external quality is ensured by use of multiple communities, regions and subgroups.
