Research Overview

We are using a research tool called the Delphi Technique for our study. This is a research process used to distil the judgements of experts using a series of questionnaires interspersed with feedback. Each questionnaire is developed based on the results of the previous one.

We will ask our Expert Group three sets of questions. At the end of each ‘round’ of questions we will summarize the responses and produce an interim report of the findings as well as a new set of questions. The final report will contain the group’s and the study’s conclusions.
