Table 2 Mixed methods study phases

From: Measurement feedback system implementation in public youth mental health treatment services: a mixed methods analysis

Phase

Data analysis

Purpose

I

Latent class analysis and characterization of emergent classes

Identify classes of clinician participants based on self-reported implementation outcomes (dependent variable) to determine if clinicians in different classes are characteristically different

II

Thematic coding

Code clinician qualitative feedback about the implementation process to identify determinants of practice (i.e., barriers and facilitators) based on an established list (65)

III

Mixing

Combine quantitative and qualitative data to understand the needs of different classes of clinicians, describe class differences and inform selection of specific implementation strategies in future research
