DCR/IHP- Cognitive Interviewing

Sponsored by the MGH Division of Clinical Research and the Mongan Institute of Health Policy

Speaker: Vanessa Merker, PhD

This one-session course will guide clinical researchers on how to utilize cognitive interviewing for instrument development. We’ll address how to use this technique to collect data to enhance the validity of an assessment instrument (survey) and assess participants’ understanding of an item and responses to an item. The course will be most beneficial for individuals who have an interest or experience in survey development. *Please note this course is only offered to MGH faculty and staff.
