When 'Normal' Becomes Normative
In 2011, we published a review exploring how researchers report and justify their focus group sample sizes. We concluded that sample sizes vary widely and that most researchers give no explanation for their sample size. The aim of our 2011 study was to describe practice rather than develop guidance. However, after our study was published, we noticed that new researchers were using our information about typical sample sizes as justification for th…
Applying GRADE-Cerqual to qualitative evidence synthesis findings
The GRADE-CERQual ('Confidence in the Evidence from Reviews of Qualitative research') approach provides guidance for assessing how much confidence to place in findings from systematic reviews of qualitative research (or qualitative evidence syntheses). The approach has been developed to support the use of findings from qualitative evidence syntheses in decision-making, including guideline development and policy formulation. Confidence in the evid…
Fear of the Fear of the Flu
In this article, we present a qualitative study of the Norwegian print news coverage of the 2009 pandemic. In initial research, we found fear to be a notable aspect of the coverage. In studying a relevant subsample in-depth, we discovered that, although there was no sound basis on which to make conclusions about what effects the coverage was having on the public, various actors—including media themselves—came on the mediated scene to express fear…
Using Qualitative Evidence in Decision Making for Health and Social Interventions
Simon Lewin and colleagues present a methodology for increasing transparency and confidence in qualitative research synthesis.
Qualitative Research Synthesis
The rise of the knowledge society has led to an increase in the amount of research that is produced and an increased demand from decision makers for summaries of this research. As a result, research syntheses have become increasingly important in applied research, especially within the health sciences. However, this methodology has not been adopted with the same enthusiasm in the field of anthropology. In this article, we describe the main princi…

The last frontier? Autonomy, uncertainty and standardisation in general practice
Earlier studies, mainly based in the UK, the US, Canada and the Netherlands, indicate that GPs are reluctant to follow guidelines. This study explores the rationale behind GPs’ reluctance to follow guidelines through focus group interviews with Norwegian GPs. A central concern appearing in the interviews is the GPs’ notion of professional identity. The GP was identified as an autonomous generalist with a close alliance to the patient and a scepti…
Patient involvement in clinical decision making
Objective This study investigates general practitioners’ (GPs) and patients’ attitudes to shared decision making, and how these attitudes affect patient satisfaction. Background Sharing of information and decisions in the consultation is largely accepted as the ideal in general practice. Studies show that most patients prefer to be involved in decision making and shared decision making is associated with patient satisfaction, although preferences…
