Assessing the Quality of Community Jury Deliberations in Online and In-Person Community Juries Using a Deductive Coding Framework.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Community juries require participants to engage in group deliberations, seeking to reach a consensus or verdict on the research question(s). Community juries have traditionally taken place in-person, although holding them online or in a hybrid format is increasingly common, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic. In order for the community jury method to be used successfully, it is crucial to ensure that the goals of the deliberative process are accomplished.

Objective

Methods

We conducted a secondary analysis of three community juries exploring the public acceptability of novel cancer screening and referral policies informed by personal risk. Tw
