Qualitative Compoent instrument: Identify source for each data collection instrument (published or researcher produced). Permission to use is included in the appendix. For published data collection instruments, identify: • Who developed the instrument • Where and with which participant group it has been previously used. • Appropriateness to the current study. • How content validity will be/was established. • Any context- and culture-specific issues unique to the population while developing the instrument. For researcher-developed instruments, identify: • Basis for instrument development. • Literature sources. • Other bases for legitimacy (or validity) of the instrument (such as pilot study). • How content validity will be/was established Quantitative Component Intrument. Quantitative Components For published instruments provide: • Name of developer(s) and year of publication. • Appropriateness to the current study. • Mention of permission from developer to use (permission letter is included in the appendix). • Published reliability and validity values relevant to their use in the study. • Where and with which populations the instrument has been used previously and how validity/reliability are/were established in the study sample. For researcher-developed instruments provide: • Literature sources. • Other bases (such as pilot study). • Evidence you will provide for reliability (for example, internal consistency and test/retest). • Evidence you will provide for validity (for example, predictive and construct validity). For all instruments, establish sufficiency of instrumentation to answer research questions.
