Stages

Additional explanation

1. Transcription

Pseudonymized audio-recordings were transcribed a verbatim by a third-party

2. Familiarization with the interview

The researcher (EDS) thoroughly read the transcripts, made reflective notes, and relistened to the audio-recordings, if necessary

3. Coding

The researcher (EDS) coded 2 transcripts via a hybrid deductive and inductive approach. The provotypes presented during the interviews informed the creation of deductive codes while inductive codes were created based upon observed patterns

4. Developing a working analytical framework

Codes sharing similarities in content were grouped into categories, creating a working analytical framework

5. Applying the analytical framework

The researcher (EDS) applied the working analytical framework, also referred to as the coding tree (Additional file 2), to the other transcripts by using NVivo software

6. Charting data into the framework matrix

The data were charted into the framework matrix. Microsoft Excel was used to summarize the data from each code and transcript

7. Interpreting the data

The data were interpreted to identify similarities and differences between the data
