Attachment 5 - Analysis of Content of Interview Schedules

Attachment 5—Analysis of Content of Interview Schedules

The purpose of this attachment is to indicate the relevance of the interview schedule to one or more of the specific research objectives of the study. We do this by means of a matrix in which the interview schedule sections are listed in the stub and the research objectives that have been described in Attachment 4 are set forth in the box heads. A blank cell in a particular column means that the subject matter of that section may not be immediately relevant to that particular research question. An “X” indicates that items in the section can be used as either an independent or dependent variable in the analysis.
