Delphi Questionnaire
Experts will be approached to participate in the research via email. If the experts agree to participate they will check 'yes' in the email with the informed consent and will be directed to the Qualtrics survey. If the expert decides to decline consent they will check 'no' in the email and will not be enrolled. Subjects who agree to participate will undergo 2 phases of questions with three rounds of the same questions in each phase. This Delphi survey research involves Phase 1 and Phase 2 of questioning, each phase involves up to 3 rounds of questions to determine agreement or disagreement. Each round will take approximately 20 minutes to complete, and your responses will remain completely confidential. For both phases, the questions will either be 7-point Likert or multiple choices. For both phases, the group of questions will be sent up to three times until we obtain agreement (up to 80% of agreement consensus). Questions that have obtained agreement will be removed in each round.
