Remote Data Collection in Qualitative Health Research
Remote methods of data collection- where participant/s and researcher/s are not co-located and communication technologies are used- have become increasingly commonplace. While in-person methods have long been considered the ‘gold-standard’ of qualitative enquiry, the COVID-19 pandemic catalysed the widespread adoption of remote methods, and their use has persisted. Remote methods offer unique opportunities; unprecedented access to participants an…
Comparing In-Person and Remote Qualitative Data Collection Methods for Data Quality and Inclusion
Background: In-person data collection has long been considered the ‘gold standard’ for qualitative data collection. Societal changes and the rapid increase in the use of remote methods during the Covid-19 pandemic intensified debate about the limitations and opportunities of remote data collection, while reigniting questions about data quality and inclusion. Objective: We sought to map available evidence exploring the characteristics and quality …
Neighbourhood effect and inequality in access to essential health services among mother–child paired samples
The study showed evidence of inequality in access to EHS due to neighbourhood effects in 26 LMICs. This evidence suggests that increased focus on the urban poor might be a important for increasing access to EHS and achieving the universal health coverage (UHC) goals
Navigating the Lay Referral System for Treatment‐Seeking Decisions During Illness in the Digital Age
Interaction with a lay referral system (informal networks that provide health advice during illness) influences the treatment‐seeking decisions of individuals with perceived healthcare needs. We examined how this occurred in urban slums in Nigeria with scarce formal healthcare and unstable social networks. Using existing theories of social networks and lay referral, we examined the use of these systems for treatment‐seeking decisions in slums, in…
Age heaping among adults in Nigeria
Age, as a variable, represents a critical basis for demographic classification; thus, its misrepresentations or misreporting alter the accuracy of demographic estimates. This paper examines the extent and pattern of age heaping in the age data for adults, collected in the Nigerian Demographic Health Survey (NDHS). The study used the NDHS data for 2003, 2008, and 2013 to compute a Whipple’s and Meyers’ blended index for each survey year, by gender…
Social Exclusion and Survival Strategies among Slum Dwellers in Ibadan, Nigeria
Social exclusion remains the most visible expressions of slum settlements. This study investigates the expression of social exclusion and survival strategies among slum dwellers in Ibadan, Nigeria. A merger of Burgess' concentric zone model and conflict theory formed the theoretical orientation for this study. Data were gathered through triangulation of quantitative and qualitative methods. In all, semi-structured questionnaire was administered t…
