eturn of questionnaires. Collected from Kelly Fisher by Nicola Davies. Satisfaction with the SMP Health Education and Impact Questionnaire (Programme Evaluation) (Nolte et al., 2007) Post-course, at the end of the final session, administered by Nicola Davies. Nicola Davies to assess, using descriptive statistics (i.e. percentages) to illustrate satisfaction with the SMP. Satisfaction with experience of intervention 5-items of the Picker Experience of Care Questionnaire Administered at the final SMP session by Nicola Davies. Administered at the end of the other three interventions by Project Leads and returned to Kelly Fisher to forward to Nicola Davies. Nicola Davies to evaluate any significant differences between the experiences of care received across the four workstreams (i.e. SMP; Telecare; Bridges, ACM). 1 All participants who declined attendance at the SMP will be sent pre-course baseline questionnaires, as mailed by Becky Wadsworth with a stamped addressed envelope for return to Kelly Fisher. *Two-week follow-up prompt for return of questionnaires. Collected from Kelly Fisher by Nicola Davies and evaluated for similarities within the group of non-responders/decliners, as well as differences between non-responders/decliners and attendees. 2 QLACS returned questionnaire responses will be entered onto an SPSS statistical database by a cancer network Administrator, using guidelines provided by Nicola Davies. 3 The distribution-based cut-off of 0.5 ES was chosen as a standardised cut-off and approximates a minimal important difference (MID) derived from several methodologies. *Each participant’s attendance will be recorded by Course Tutors, as overseen by Anna Lynall. *Cost-effectiveness will also be examined post-intervention by Birmingham PCT. 20/08/09 12
4.3. Focus Groups and Interviews Focus groups for HOPE participants will be held after the last intervention session. Semistructured interviews with tutors will be held after each completion of the three HOPE interventions. A random subsample (n=3) of participants from each HOPE programme will also take part in a 6-month follow-up semi-structured interview to describe any lasting impact of the HOPE programme. 5. Methods of Analysis Quantitative data elicited from questionnaires will be examined for statistical significance via the Statistics Package for Social Scientists (SPSS). It is anticipated that multiple regression analyses will be used in order to determine the extent that the SMP contributes to patientreported outcomes. Qualitative data will be analysed using Framework Analysis (Ritchie & Spencer, 1994), which was developed in the context of applied policy research to produce outcomes or recommendations. Framework analysis is often used where there are specific issues being addressed and where some themes are generated from a priori of issues identified in the research questions. However, the methodology is flexible enough to allow other themes to emerge from the data. 6.
