Some studies examine individual preferences, these type of works have specific methodology. For example the questionnaire they use might not necessarily need to be validated. The type of biases are pretty different from usual quantitative studies. I think quality appraisal tools which are designed for quantitative or cross-sectional studies, may not cover all essential aspects.
The highest quality evidence available is vital to the interactive process of moving knowledge into practice.Critical appraisal provides an efficient method of reviewing evidence for its quality, and is an important part of the process of evidenced-informed practice and policy development. The use of quality checklists and other tools can provide a systematic and effective means to help identify rigorous studies with valid conclusions for potential implementation and assessment.
Syed Amin Thank you
but I am looking for quality appraisal tool not the logic of critical appraisal.
