Allicock et al [31] demonstrated that a stand-alone, mobile app–based intervention to encourage healthy diet and PA behaviors among African American survivors of breast cancer led to a significant reduction in sedentary time and fast food intake. Another culturally tailored, internet-based intervention for PA promotion as an adjunct to in-person PA sessions resulted in a significant reduction in sedentary behaviors among African American women [38].

A Systematic Framework for Analyzing Patient-Generated Narrative Data: Protocol for a Content Analysis

A Systematic Framework for Analyzing Patient-Generated Narrative Data: Protocol for a Content Analysis

It identifies themes in data systematically, where each theme represents a semantic topic. More specifically, the framework method builds a matrix structure with each piece of narrative data (eg, a patient post or a sentence) stored in a row and each identified theme in a column. Using this structure, researchers can cluster narrative data around identified themes and identify the relationships between themes (see Figure 1).
