| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 Q1 Are OTs more likely to do qualitative research... and if so, why?#OTalk https://t.co/esJLCAoqOA |
 | Lauren @Lauren_OT @OTalk_ I think because OT interventions are so individualised, qualitative research is perhaps easier to do?! #OTalk |

| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk @AvrilDrummond1 I think perhaps the nature of the research questions that occupational therapists ask often lend themselves more to qualitative methodologies. |
| Nic @mcgarveynic @LynneGoodacre @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk, anecdotally yes, maybe because we’re so person centred that we uphold views and perspectives more?? |
 | grainne carley @gra_carley More likely to focus on qual, I think, & it's because may be considered more person centred, drawing out on client experiences & giving voice to these #otalk |
| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken It depends on clinical area..where rcts have bn done..think OTs likely 2 do more as have skills/infrastructure/confidence. In less researched areas quals may be needed to build theoretical understanding of area. #otalk https://t.co/vN5QYZsqA0 |

| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Everyone in my cohort did qual for their MSc research...scared of stats, or what they think quant will be like. Wanting depth of participants views. Expertise of supervisors too #OTalk https://t.co/V3GOGnu9vB |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ I think certain subjects- numbers don’t tell whole story! Autism for example... I prefer qualitative over qualitative. #otalk |
 | Birger Destoop @B1rger @OTalk_ I'm "lurking" #OTalk with one eye while watching the Falcon Heavy launch With the other. 😄 |
| Paula Otter @PaulaOtter1 Q1 I think when new to research qualitative seems much more achievable, especially with no funding and if completing on your own whilst continuing to work as a clinician #otalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ And for others like rehab setting- mixed study might be better. Like Berg fall scale coupled with follow up interviews with elderly. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ I like that train of thought @MaryBirken ... is there a sensae that qual research is a precursor to quant maybe? #OTalk https://t.co/RC2wpdAuJL |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk I wonder if this might be nearer to the truth...... https://t.co/9JJ5wTBZ1W |

| Tori the OT @Tori_Doll_ @OTalk_ 1) I think potentially yes - from my own experience have completed qual research for both my BSc & MSc dissertations. I think it's due to wanting to really explore people's experiences and I feel it's where my competency lies #OTalk |

| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny @PaulaOtter1 @PaulaOtter1 #OTalk This is really interesting and a common mis-perception in my view. Good quality qualitative research is just as hard as quantitative as I experienced with the help of @ClaireBallinge1 |
| Dr Lynne Goodacre 💙 @LynneGoodacre I’m wondering if more people are stepping into quant via mixed methods studies now? #OTalk |

| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken Yes I think where indepth understanding or area is needed first before measuring effectiveness, quals is a pre-cursor to doing quants research. #otalk https://t.co/DXUL1iugKU |

 | Orla @orlatheot @AvrilDrummond1 From my masters cohort, we have 1 quantitative paper and the rest are qualitative (few are doing systematic reviews). I think it appeals to #OccupationalTherapy as you can collect rich data about the topic and the context. The whys instead of the what and how. #OTalk |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk . Agree with that- except you need to know some general things about people eg relating to drugs - so can't just focus on one person? https://t.co/pdmmy6rFcW |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ But can numbers sometimes tell a powerful story too @KimBellOT ? #OTalk https://t.co/H5RyhxuFmM |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Interesting...I like this thought #OTalk https://t.co/3QLAfisOww |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @KimBellOT And some assessments we have- they might not be too sensitive to minor improvements. Modified Barthel Index is a good example. #otalk |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 RT @OTalk_: But can numbers sometimes tell a powerful story too @KimBellOT ? #OTalk https://t.co/H5RyhxuFmM |
| Paula Otter @PaulaOtter1 @preston_jenny @ClaireBallinge1 Agree it seems just as hard... But for me seems an easier staring point. I can relate much easier to case study methodology and don't feel quite as overwhelmed. #OTalk |
| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken Interesting...maybe more quantitive research methods need to be part of OT training to remove stats fear? #otalk https://t.co/AbnP6A7IyF |

| #OTalk @OTalk_ #OTalk https://t.co/XOV3C71X5f |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny @orlatheot @AvrilDrummond1 @orlatheot @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk But surely the what and how are also important if we are to advance our knowledge and practice. |
| Kim OT @_OTKim @OTalk_ Think numbers are useful and should never be disregarded, BUT they are never enough - well wouldn't be to me. #otalk |
| Dr Lynne Goodacre 💙 @LynneGoodacre Perhaps also the skills for qual research are aligned closely to the clinical skills we feel comfortable with, active listening, powerful questions, etc #OTalk |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk. And totally bias response from me- but YES!!! https://t.co/CXbr3Owa6z |
 | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @OTalk_ I think that the process of capturing qualitative data runs parallel to the OT process making this more likely to be the research of choice #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @MaryBirken I heard a lot of my former classmates fear stats. But I also think what we are trying to research on... numbers don’t completely capture whole story. #otalk |
| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken RT @AvrilDrummond1: #OTalk. And totally bias response from me- but YES!!! https://t.co/CXbr3Owa6z |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk. Yes- but only part of the picture? https://t.co/6ztFlxf9Ha |

| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 RT @LynneGoodacre: I'd second that as well #OTalk https://t.co/50Sv6OnPRm |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @MaryBirken Also, what is the clinical significance of 1 point reduction on a 10 point scale regards to pain? Sometimes that might be statistically significant, but not clinically significant. #otalk |

| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken Thats where mixed methods comes in.... what does result mean? #otalk https://t.co/bPdx1zMq9J |
 | Kim Willis 💙 @SPCTeamLead @AvrilDrummond1 I agree! I still have nightmares over SPSS when I did undergraduate dissertation 😕 #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @EllenChisman Me would be a no... lol! Might be because I am from state background. I just need to dust off rust! #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Most measures would indicate a clinically significant change in addition to a statistically significant one #OTalk https://t.co/thTh7sz3pM |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk. Agree with you- depends on question. But bodies such as NICE still lean heavily on RCT and SR evidence. https://t.co/LdNxiOMbjl |
| NosWhyNot? @NosWhyNot RT @akwyz: Mapping global accessibility to cities - https://t.co/J0hEZxkfnI - #axschat #a11y #OTalk #benurse |
| Maggie Ruth Morton @SensationalOT #OTalk -when I use surveys or questionnaires the qualitative answers always provide me with the best evidence. I think as a listener, these questions are where my interests lie https://t.co/38DqX5DOvE |
| Nic @mcgarveynic I think it’s the relational aspect again- perhaps RCT feel too rigid, not ‘therapeutic’ enough maybe? I’m not sure but it’s a good Q! #OTalk |
| Avril Drummond💙 @AvrilDrummond1 #OTalk. Too few OT experts to pass on experience? https://t.co/dhcVghJ7ue |
| David R. Pollard ⛰🥾 @DavidPollardIRL RT @akwyz: Mapping global accessibility to cities - https://t.co/J0hEZxkfnI - #axschat #a11y #OTalk #benurse |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @KimWillisOT @AvrilDrummond1 Well- I had to use R and SAS when I was in undergrad doing my stats major. That was a lot more daunting than minitab and SPSS. #otalk |
| grainne carley @gra_carley RCTs seem to require more clients, more resources for research, withholding or delay of treatment..also v little RCTs in OT lit historically #OTalk |
| Kim OT @_OTKim @mcgarveynic Yes like this as well? There's also that one anout 'lies damn lies and statistics' not sure who said it! #otalk |
| Dr Jenny Preston MBE @preston_jenny #OTalk @AvrilDrummond1 Using the MRC Framework we often don’t have the earlier knowledge re feasibility, piloting etc to allow us to progress to RCT. We need to get more comfortable with the earlier stages and see them as valid stepping stones. https://t.co/7Z3fsHPpXx |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @AvrilDrummond1 I second that. I think that was why many OT lecturers hope that I turn out to be a quantitative researcher. As things turned out though... it was not what they planned! #otalk |

| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @AvrilDrummond1 Seeing research as ‘extra’ work can be a major barrier in clinical settings and l guess a quantitative approach, I would assume would require more work than a qualitative approach?? #OTalk |
| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken Describing the intervention in detail and what outcomes to measure can be challenge #otalk https://t.co/A3YgRvtxs8 |
| Kim OT @_OTKim @mcgarveynic Yes I like this as well and the one 'lies, damn lies and statistics' not sure who said that though! #otalk |
 | Stephy'Ren Nana @stephyren #OTalk https://t.co/69yFfKOAxN |
| Orla @orlatheot @preston_jenny @AvrilDrummond1 True! But I think the in-depth picture qualitative brings appeals to the students I've talked to in my experience #OTalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @preston_jenny @AvrilDrummond1 And we also got to pool data so that there can be a more robust study. Also, we should create niches for biostatisticians! They just need to be educated about why we do what we do. #otalk |
| Kim OT @_OTKim @AvrilDrummond1 I quite enjoyed spss and getting my 'results' at the end of the process! #otalk |
| Dr Mary Birken @MaryBirken Developing skills & knowledge to conduct RCTs is a challenge... rct research jobs to gain experience are scarce and competitive #otalk https://t.co/A3YgRvtxs8 |
| Will Chegwidden @willchegwidden @OTalk_ @AvrilDrummond1 I think it depends on what your question is. If it’s efficacy of a novel Rx then the control grp is easy; it’s standard care. It’s when we want to prove our basic OT role is effective or VfM we have problems ethically- can’t withhold standard care. #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @mcgarveynic I understand very clearly... but I think it was because of my background. I inquired about why we don’t as first. But as I found out topics of research, I was often like, “Well, that can be be done... but probably be extremely difficult.” Or “No way that will be an RCT.” #otalk |

| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTalk_ Also, if we want to do RCT’s, make sure we have good relationships with universities that have biostatisticians! These biostatisticians need to know what we do, and we need to know what biostatisticians want. #otalk |

| Stephy'Ren Nana @stephyren @pjmasonOT @AvrilDrummond1 In my experience most OTs are not keen in partaking in qualitative research processes. It is hard enough trying to get them to volunteer as participants in research #OTalk |
