Show detailsVA ESP Suicide Prevention Study Selection Process: Coding
Step 1. Importing citations
- Enter database name, search date, and other details into Custom 1.
Step 2. Title/Abstract level coding
- The objective of the title/abstract review phase is to eliminate obviously irrelevant publications. Abstracts that lack an explicit reference to suicidal self-directed violence (e.g., suicidally, behaviors, attempts, and suicides) will be excluded at this phase. Reviewers will provide decision and characteristic codes and these will be recorded in Custom 3 of the EndNote library.
- Decision codes:
- R=Retrieve
- E=Exclude
- B=Retrieve for Background
- Characteristic codes: Our first priority is retrieval of systematic reviews, especially those focusing on Veteran/military populations. Our second priority is retrieval of primary studies in Veteran/military populations. For ease of identifying these subsets of publications in the ENL, reviewers should add either or both of the following codes when applicable:
- SR=systematic review
- V=Veteran and/or military population
Step 3. Full-text level coding
- Record final decision to include study in review, and any other study characteristics of interest.
- Characteristics of interest (recorded in Custom Fields):
- Population: Veteran/Military or Non-Veteran/Military
- Intervention Type: Psychotherapy, Pharmacotherapy, or Referral/Follow-up
- Study Design: Systematic Review, clinical trial (randomized or nonrandomized), observational study, other
- Full-text exclusion codes to be entered into Custom 4:
- 1=Non-English language
- 2=Ineligible country (only including US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, Australia)
- 3=Ineligible outcome
- 4=Ineligible intervention (i.e., broadly focused public health interventions implemented among populations, etc.)
- 5=Study does not evaluate interventions
- 6=Ineligible publication type (e.g., letter, editorial, publication available only as abstract, non-systematic review, etc.)
- 7=Ineligible systematic review due to limitations in quality
- 8=Nonsystematic regulatory agency analysis
- 9=Non-RCT study design
- Full-text coding to be completed in the format of a label affixed to each publication in the format shown below. Reviewer 1 will circle relevant characteristics and inclusion decision, and list an exclusion code when applicable. Reviewer 2 will verify Reviewer 1's decisions and circle Agree or Disagree. All disagreements will be resolved using a consensus process and consensus decisions recorded.
