TTACHMENT K: CLINICIAN INTERVIEW GUIDE

Introduction: As you know, your clinic participated in the project that worked to engage adolescents in your community using an in-office component (the RAAPS survey) and an out-of-office components (the Facebook sites and Twitter).

Since it’s been up and running for about [number of months since started], we’d like to hear your thoughts and impressions of how the different components worked. I’ll ask some open-ended questions and you can respond however you like; so, there are no right or wrong answers. We also want to hear both positive and negative comments you might have. Just as a reminder, your participation in this interview is voluntary. I also want to remind you that I will audio record the interview so I don’t miss any important points you make. I’ll take a few notes as we talk. No names will be used and your answers will kept confidential to the extent permitted by law, including AHRQ’s confidentiality statute, 42 USC 299c-3(c).
