“…It is qualitative in that it uses brainstorming from individuals for ideas and group processes for unstructured sorting interpretation. Quantitative methods are then used for data analysis including multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis (Trochim & McLinden, ). The Concept System ® (CS Global MAX ™ ) is a software program that can be used to collect or enter the concept mapping qualitative data, then uses ‘a non‐metric multidimensional scaling algorithm’ (Filiberto, , p. 96) to perform structured conceptualization.…”

Aims To identify the health problems that women feel require help and subsequent help‐seeking behaviour during the 12 months period after childbirth. Background Many women experience physical and mental health problems after childbirth, but there is a gap in understanding how they perceive their health after childbirth. Studies suggested they are inhibited in expressing their needs and so seek informal rather than professional help for their health problems. Design A mixed method concept mapping study. Method Two groups of Australian women were recruited by an online platform and purposive sampling (N = 81) in 2017–2018, based on an established concept mapping methodology. A first group created 83 brainstorm statements about post‐childbirth health problems and help‐seeking and a second group sorted and rated the statements based on their perception of the prevalence of the issues and the help‐seeking advice they would offer to others. Bradshaw`s Taxonomy of Needs was used to theoretically underpins the explanation of the results of women's felt need after childbirth. Results Multidimensional scaling resulted in six clusters of issues which were categorized into three domains: ‘health issues and care’, ‘support’ and ‘fitness’. Despite being directly asked, about two‐thirds of the women did not report experiencing any health problems. Conclusion Our findings showed women had a broader perception of healthcare needs which included support and fitness. There is a potential gap in services for women who do not have good social support. Impact Family and friends were a key source of help‐seeking. Post‐childbirth routine care was focused on infant care and limited to the first 6 weeks after childbirth. The content of current post‐childbirth care must be reviewed.

“…Therefore, we employed Concept Mapping (CM), a mixed‐method participatory approach to gather qualitative data and analyse it quantitatively 28,29 . The key CM steps of preparation, ideas generation (brainstorming), statement structuring (sorting and rating), and concept mapping analysis, are described in detail elsewhere 30 . We used the Concept Systems Global MAX™ 31 web platform to undertake this study.…”

Objectives:To explore the challenges that Victorian sporting organisations experience when developing, delivering or scaling non-traditional social sport products to engage insufficiently active people. Methods: Online ConceptMapping was used to gather qualitative data and analyse it quantitatively.Results: A total of 68 participants (27 organisations) brainstormed 158 challenges. The research team synthesised these to 71 unique challenges for participants to sort into groups and rate for importance (0-5) and ease of overcoming (0-5). A nine-cluster solution -Deliverers; Capacity to drive the product; Facilities and partnerships; Product development; Sustainable business model; Marketing to insufficiently active; Attracting the insufficiently active; Clubs and volunteers; and Shifting traditional sport culture -was considered most appropriate. Participants rated the Deliverers challenges as the most important (mean=3.52), and the Marketing to insufficiently active challenges as the easiest to overcome (2.72). Conclusions:Key ingredients to successfully developing and delivering non-traditional sport opportunities for insufficiently active populations are: recruiting appropriate product deliverers; building the capacity of delivery organisations and systems; and developing products relevant to the delivery context that align with the needs and characteristics of the target population. Implications for public health:A system-wide response is required to address the challenges associated with sport organisations developing, scaling and delivering innovative social sport products for insufficiently active populations.

“…Statements were left unchanged, whenever possible, to preserve as much as the content and wording in the original voice of the participants. The research team decided to keep a higher number of statements than usually found in GCM project to represent as accurately as possible the conceptual universe [generally a set of 80 to 100 statements can be reasonably processed in subsequent steps (39,44)].…”

Using Group Concept Mapping to Develop a Conceptual Model of Housing and Community-Based Residential Settings for Adults With Severe Mental Illness

Background: Most existing conceptual models of residential environments and housing programs were developed over a decade ago or lack comprehensiveness. The attributes to be used to describe housing programs with adequate specification remain unclear including the attributes that mediate service user outcomes. In this study, group concept mapping was used to develop a conceptual model of housing and community-based residential settings for adults with severe mental illness based on stakeholder perceptions and values. Methods: Participants were selected through purposive sampling and included service users, family members, staff working in residential facilities, mental health workers and managers. Participants (n=221) generated 1,382 statements describing attributes of housing and community-based residential settings for adults with severe mental illness (99% saturation). Thematic content analysis was conducted to analyze the statements and create a list of 140 selected statements. Participants then rated (n=416) and sorted into categories (n=73) the selected statements. Descriptive statistics were computed for each statement relative importance. Multidimensional scaling and hierarchical cluster analysis were used to produce the conceptual model (maps). Stakeholders (n=12) were also involved in the interpretation of the maps. Results: The findings show overall concordance between stakeholders in relation to statements perceived importance (rating) and the statements interrelationships (sorting). The stress value of 0.23 indicates that the two-dimensional solution of the multidimensional scaling analysis fits the data set (goodness of fit). The final conceptualization includes 12 clusters: (1) A balanced and healthy housing system; (2) Quality and management practices (facility/local level); (3) Physical external environment;
