Participants of FGD 1 and 2 were recruited through purposive sampling. Adult participants were approached using trusted network organisations. These organisations are the Network of Organisations of Older Migrants (NOOM), which focus on diverse groups of migrant older people in the Netherlands, and the ABC foundation, a volunteer organisation for low-literate people throughout the Netherlands. During the recruitment process maximum variation in gender, age, ethnic background, educational level and level of health literacy was aimed to achieve. FGD 1 and 2 were led by a researcher [AA] and another moderator experienced in leading FGDs with people with low (health) literacy skills [NHvR]. FGD 1 and 2 took place in August 2018.
Participants of FGD 3 and 4 were various primary care professionals, members of care organisations, policy makers, and researchers. Participants of FGD 3 and 4 were recruited (purposive sampling) through the expert network of the researchers of this project, aiming for variation in gender, age, professional background, and experience with person-centred care. To be included in the FGD, participants needed to have scientific (research) experience and/or practical work experience in a professional or service organisation regarding person-centred care in primary care. FGD 3 and 4 were led by two researchers [AA and HJMV or MvdM]. FGD 3 and 4 took place in December 2018.
