Table 2 Problems by item, and revision of items in each round. (Numbers in each round are the number of problems identified)

From: Qualitative assessment of the primary care outcomes questionnaire: a cognitive interview study

  1. Questions 11–16: The wording of these questions was not changed. However, the ordering was changed between round one and round two, and this may have helped comprehension
  2. Questions 17–20: The double lines at the end of round three indicate changes to the wording of the response options, not the item. The first option was changed from “As much as I want” to “I know as much as I want” / “I understand as much as I want”
  3. Questions 21–22: The double lines at the end of round three indicate changes to the wording of the response options, not the item. A “not applicable” option was added at the end of this round. This was discussed with round three participants
