Data collection through in-depth interviews

A topic guide was used for the interview with a broad set of questions about the

inherent value of using qualitative methods within RCTs, methods being used to

address intervention or evaluation challenges, and some of the challenges faced

when mixing methods. Interviews were conducted by phone or Skype and lasted

50 min on average. The interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed.

Transcripts were entered into NVivo (QSR International, Melbourne, Australia) for

qualitative data analysis.

Step 3: Framework development and group consensus process

We conducted a thematic analysis of the interview data by using a framework

approach [37]. We adapted a version of the Consolidated Standards of Reporting

Trials (CONSORT) Statement [38] as our framework in an attempt to move beyond

current discussions of how qualitative research can add value to trials and

highlight the indispensable nature of qualitative methods as a complement to

quantitative research methodologies. CONSORT is recognised as an essential tool

for reporting trial outcomes and widely used by medical journals and international

editorial groups [39]. This provided an ideal starting point for appealing to

quantitative researchers using a well-recognised framework. To adapt the

CONSORT Statement for our purposes, our research team (KD, NM and JM)

conducted a rapid review of the literature on the main methodological challenges

 of using RCTs to evaluate complex public health interventions and organised these

challenges according to the CONSORT Statement’s main headings (Table 4)

[40,41,42,43,44,45]. Because of our focus on developing a framework for qualitative

methods rather than reporting trial outcomes, not all of the CONSORT Statement

categories were relevant. We then merged relevant CONSORT headings into final

categories according to their key challenges.

Part of the Springer Series in Design and Innovation book series (SSDI, volume 12))Through a particular way
of thinking and a specific approach to knowledge, design contributes to an understanding of
the most diverse issues that exist outside its scope [1]. It aims to develop creative and
innovative solutions as both a discipline and a practice. Within this framework, the purpose of
this study is to identify and understand the role and contribution of thinking through
design specifically as it relates to data collection and analysis methodology, namely contextual
inquiry and interview methods. To find answers to these questions, a questionnaire/interview
was conducted at the São João Hospital Breast Centre in Porto, Portugal. The design of this
questionnaire/interview was studied and the collected information was analysed. The
interviewed women suffer or have suffered from breast cancer and take part in a doctoral
research focus group combining both areas of health (psycho-oncology) and design. The analysis
revealed the application of a unique vision of design as a discipline in different stages,
indicating a quest that goes beyond the pragmatic use of methodology and challenges itself to
seek and explore through poetic observation [2, p. 16]. This study shows the advantages of the
primordial integration of designers and their practices in multidisciplinary research teams
based on the ‘designerly’ ways of thinking contribution that, due to
the rhetorical and exploratory nature of design [3], challenges the entirely rational and linear
practices and processes in search of innovative and creative solutions suited to a specific
audience and goals.

Open Data Quality

Anastasija Nikiforova
The research discusses how (open) data quality could be described, what should be considered
developing a data quality management solution and how it could be applied to open data to check its
quality. The proposed approach focuses on development of data quality specification which can be
 executed to get data quality evaluation results, find errors in data and possible problems which must be
solved. The proposed approach is applied to several open data sets to evaluate their quality. Open data is
very popular, free available for every stakeholder - it is often used to make business decisions. It is
important to be sure that this data is trustable and error-free as its quality problems can lead to huge
losses.
