2. How was the LMI collected?

This seems obvious, but does the LMI seem to have been collected in a reasonable way? This covers everything from geographical spread, age range, ethnic background to type of questioning used in the research.

As those who use interviewing skills in their work will agree, it's easy to ask a 'leading question' i.e. one which tends to encourage a particular response - so if you are looking at LMI be sure that you trust the approach used in the gathering of the data.

As a minimum think about:

  • How was the data collected?
  • What questions were asked?
  • How did they ask them?
  • Who was asked?
