Questions
Question (1)
For one of my studies, I am using Q methodology for the first time. I am currently developing the Q-survey that will be administered to participants on an online platform (I am considering using Qsortouch). Phone interviews with participants will be conducted after they have completed the Q-survey to better understand how they rank different items (high scores and low scores items).
I am looking for any practical recommendation or tip that you will have on how successfully conducting a Q-methodology online (ideal number of items, user-friendly platform, etc.)
Thank you!
