Quantitative and qualitative responses from three surveys administered via Online Surveys as part of a Delphi process. The subject of the surveys was defining the role of a 'clinical' pharmacy technician using Likert scale quantitative and qualitative responses.

Data collection method:

This research required the participation of a panel who were occupational and policy experts on the topic, they were purposefully recruited to the study. Content for the surveys was created from literature searches and panel feedback. The Delphi method was used, three Rounds of surveys were distributed via the online platform 'Online Surveys'. The raw data presents the responses from each contributor by question, including both the quanitiative (Likert response) and qualitative comments using free-text boxes. The data has been downloaded from the Online Surveys platform and should be interpreted as the full responses from each of the contributors for each of the three survey rounds. For the purpose of the study summary statistics were summated for the criteria included in each round. An inductive approach was used to group the qualitative data, identifying key comments and themes to support the interpretation of the quantitative ranking data.
