Other criteria

Decisions regarding other inclusion and exclusion criteria, such as time span, databases, study designs, will be contingent on the terminology findings arising in Study 1a—Review of Reviews.

  1. *These criteria are the same in all three scoping reviews. **Examples of descriptive characteristics are author, year, research discipline, population, and context. Examples of partnership characteristics are partnership term definition, form of partnership, and partnership members. PICOS population, intervention, comparators, outcomes, study design
