We then examined the participants' objective driving behaviors using Get Location, a specifically designed smartphone application.
Project data also suggests that the program design and experiences are effective in promoting interest in STEM education and careers among participants (objective 2).
A measure of the participants objective social situation, recorded by the SIX [ 17].
Participants' objective health status was evaluated by recording their chronic conditions, symptoms of depression, and functional status of ADL and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL).
To assess illness level as an indicator of participants' objective need of health service use, the Cumulative Illness Rating Scale for Geriatrics (CIRS-G) [ 29] was used.
A follow-up question addressing the participants' objective in staying physically active in old age was developed based on the FGD findings and sent out to all participants from phase 1 of the data collection.
Tennant and Badley [ 46] evaluated age as a single predictor for non-response bias, while Chen et al. [ 13] did not explicitly evaluate the effects of participants' objective physical and mental health status.
Participants' objective performances were not correlated across two tasks, indicating that the correlation we observed in metacognitive ability is unlikely to result from common mechanisms for perceptual decision making.
Still, with regard to the expressed credibility of objective data found in our material, we noted ambivalence among participants: Objective data, numerical data, were often depicted as mere black and white and of limited use or value to clinicians – simultaneously, scores were frequently used in communication.
The following information was extracted from the studies that met our inclusion criteria: type of QI intervention, number of included studies and participants, objective, description of intervention, description of primary and secondary outcome, effect of primary and secondary outcome, and contextual factors.
