Interview RAP Sheet

Rapid assessment procedure (RAP) sheets were used for note-taking during the interviews. Commonly used in rapid evaluations - designed to improve the rapidity and replicability of research during public health emergencies - RAP sheets help reduce the need for long-form transcription and encourage reflexivity for interviewers and researchers, reduce interviewer bias, and enable validation of internal consistency with coding. The RAP sheet contained the summary of questions from the topic guide, and the interviewers took notes of what the participants said regarding each question during the interview.
