Table 7 Categories resulting from the answers on the semi-structured questionnaire
1. Comments related to Response Process evidence: Comments on the score options | 2. Comments related to Response Process: Assessment problems in general | 3. Comments related to Content evidence |
|---|---|---|
The score option does not provide sufficient guidance | Other parts of the consultation (not on behaviour change) have influenced the assessment | The description of the target is not clear (e.g. target 3) |
How to score missed opportunities | Difficult to give very low or high marks | The description is expanded and/or complicated |
How to score MI-inconsistent behaviour | Follow-up consultation (it is not clear what preceded) | Targets are overlapping (e.g. target 2 and 4) |
How to score the various components in a target when some occur and others not or badly | It is easier to assess good consultations | It is not clear if the content or the process of the target should be rated or both (e.g. target 4) |
How to score when the target behaviour is well done in (most) parts of the consultation and not or poorly in other parts | Target inconsistent behaviour is not described in the target (e.g. target 6) | |
The step to the planning phase or follow-up is not mentioned explicitly |
