As additional insight about Delphi method, there is the notion that construction engineering and management (CEM) researchers often rely on alternative research techniques when traditional methods fail. In contemporary research, the Delphi method is particularly useful when objective data are unattainable; when there is a lack of empirical evidence; experimental research is unrealistic or unethical, […]
As a quantitative research approach, it might be essential to look into other forms of data collection variables. A choice of correlational study using binary logistic regression is a viable option for data collection variables. However, depending on variability and how multiple the data could be, I might suggestion looking further into multiple regression. Multiple regression […]

Often interviews are conducted over weeks, months, or […]
Value-Based Purchasing is the linking of health provider payment to improved performance by health care providers. This type of payment systems account for healthcare provider both for the costs and quality of care they provider. For example, the provision of patient-centered care by safety-net hospitals (SNHs) has important implications both for patient outcomes and how […]
One of the influential and classical works I found in the use of Health Belief Model (HBM) was the understanding that the rate in vaccine patients on hemodialysis is considerably lesser than the Healthy People 2020 targets approach (Glanz, Rimer & Vismanath, 2008). The study by Adams, Hall & Fulghum (2014) focused on utilizing the […]
I have come across theoretical model known as the Precaution Adoption Process Model (PAPM) with its limited explanations and usage in predicting behaviors. The Precaution Adoption Process Model (PAPM) is a convenient framework for assessing where a person is in the process of deciding to take action on health behavior (Corner & Sparks, 1996). Conner, […]
