How Many Interviews Are Enough?: An Experiment with Data Saturation and Variability
TL;DR: The authors operationalize saturation and make evidence-based recommendations regarding nonprobabilistic sample sizes for interviews and found that saturation occurred within the first twelve interviews, although basic elements for metathemes were present as early as six interviews.
Journal ArticleDOI
The value of contraception to prevent perinatal HIV transmission.
TL;DR: Increasing contraceptive use among nonusers of contraception who do not want to get pregnant is cost-effective and is an equally important strategy to prevent perinatal transmission as prenatal care programs that provide and promote nevirapine to HIV-infected mothers.

Greg Guest,Dominick Shattuck,Laura Johnson,Betty Akumatey,Edith Clarke,Pai-Lien Chen,Kathleen M. MacQueen +6 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Fear, hope and social desirability bias among women at high risk for HIV in West Africa.
TL;DR: Vulnerability of a population should be considered when asking sensitive questions in self-report interviews, and audio-computer-assisted self-interviews may not be appropriate for vulnerable populations in developing countries, particularly for older respondents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acceptability of PrEP for HIV prevention among women at high risk for HIV.
Greg Guest,Dominick Shattuck,Laura Johnson,Betty Akumatey,Edith Clarke,Pai-Lien Chen,Kathleen M. MacQueen +6 more
TL;DR: If daily preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV is found to be efficacious and has as few physical side effects as TDF, acceptability of this method among women in the study population may not be problematic.
