Systematic review has developed as a specific methodology for searching for, appraising and synthesizing findings of primary studies, rapidly become cornerstone the evidence-based practice policy movement. Qualitative research traditionally been excluded from systematic reviews, much effort is now being invested in resolving daunting methodological epistemological challenges associated with trying to move towards more inclusive forms review. We describe our experiences, very diverse...
Objective: Qualitative research is increasingly valued as part of the evidence for policy and practice, but how it should be appraised contested. Various appraisal methods, including checklists other structured approaches, have been proposed rarely evaluated. We aimed to compare three methods appraising qualitative papers that were candidates inclusion in a systematic review on support breast-feeding. Method: A sample 12 breast-feeding was by six reviewers using methods: unprompted...
In this article, it is argued that reflexivity integral to experiential qualitative research in psychology. Reflexivity has been defined many ways. Woolgar's continuum of though provides a useful gauge by which judge whether researcher involved simple reflection or reflexivity. The article demonstrates the benefits adopting reflexive attitude presenting "challenge-to-competency." author's encounter with Sarah will help illustrate role both data generation and interpretative analysis. To...
Researchers using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) within applied research typically use homogenous samples exploring shared perspectives on a single phenomenon of interest. This article explores the challenges and opportunities involved with developing rigorous epistemologically coherent designs for capturing more complex systemic experiential phenomena, through multiple to explore same phenomenon. We outline series perspective analytic procedures that can be adapted used...

Three in example area support breast-feeding were evaluated using six electronic bibliographic databases. The based on thesaurus terms, free-text terms broad-based terms. These combined with recognised previously used a Cochrane review. For each strategy, we recall...
Abstract Background Paediatric critical care (PCC) is a high‐pressure working environment. Staff experience high levels of burnout, symptoms post‐traumatic stress, and moral distress. Aim To understand challenges to workplace well‐being in PCC help inform the development staff interventions improve maintain well‐being. Study Design The Enhanced Critical Incident Technique (ECIT) was used. ECIT encompasses semi‐structured interviews thematic analysis. We identified ‘critical incidents’,...
Abstract Background Research has demonstrated that staff working in Paediatric Critical Care (PCC) experience high levels of burnout, post‐traumatic stress and moral distress. There is very little evidence how this problem could be addressed. Aim To develop evidence‐based, psychologically informed interventions designed to improve PCC well‐being can feasibility tested on a large scale. Study Design The Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) framework guided systematic development the interventions....

We highlight costs benefits reflect on development rapport with participants within medium. particular, consider how researchers can attempt make interviewing less abrupt more conversational,...
Changing gender roles and increased sexual economic freedom have created opportunities for women to give birth relatively late in life. However, stigma misplaced fears about physical capacity are often reported as sources of anxiety among older, vitro fertilisation-induced mothers.

Our findings suggest,...
Breast cancer diagnosis and treatments can have a profound impact upon women's well-being, body image, sexual functioning, but less is known about the relational context of their coping intimate partners.

Failing a high-stakes assessment at medical school is major event for those who go through the experience. Students fail may be more likely to struggle in professional practice, therefore helping individuals overcome problems and respond appropriately important. There little understanding about what factors influence how experience failure or make sense of failing remediation. The aim this study was investigate complexity surrounding from student's perspective using interpretative...
ABSTRACT Innovative methods to manage frailty are critical managing the needs of an ageing population. Evidence suggests there opportunities reverse or prevent through early intervention. However, little is known about older adults’, families’ and practitioners’ beliefs malleability frailty. This study examined European stakeholders’ accounts acceptability feasibility screening prevention inform future intervention development. Semi-structured focus groups individual interviews were...
Alveolar macrophages (AM) perform a primary defense mechanism in the lung through phagocytosis of inhaled particles and microorganisms.

Abstract How precisely do media influence their readers, listeners and viewers? In this paper, we argue that any serious study of the psychology must incorporate a systematic analysis material. However, presently lacks methodology for doing is sensitive to context, relying on generalised methods like content or discourse analysis. develop an argument support our development technique have called Media Framing Analysis (MFA), formal procedure conducting analyses (primarily news) texts.
