Reflections on the Methodological Development and Utility of the Kidscreen-52 Quality of Life Questionnaire: A Transdisciplinary Methodologization
2022
Abstrakt
The purpose of this study is to critically explore the methodology for item generation used in the development of the KIDSCREEN-52 quality of life questionnaire (Ravens-Sieberer, 2014 & 2008; Robitail et al 2006). The reason for conducting this study is the long-standing need for methodological insights both in cross-cultural health-related survey research (Perneger et al., 1999) and educational research of immigrant children (Shivayogi, 2013; Punch, 2012; Liamputtong, 2007 & 2008).
Our research questions were: (1) What methodological principles do emerge in evidence-based educational research of immigrant children?, and (2) In which ways are these methodological principles present in the methodology of Kidscreen-52?
