The Qualitative Arm of the ATTUNE Research in the Czech Republic: The Methods, Study Design, Sample, and Life Chart Analysis

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: Methamphetamine use is a long-term problem in the Czech Republic. The evidence describing the individual careers of the different methamphetamine users is limited. Aims: The aim of this study is to describe the methodological approach of the qualitative arm of the ATTUNE study in Czech Republic and first results of the analysis. Design and Measurements (Methods): The data collection in this arm of the study was based on the different instruments: of-line and online screening instruments, guide for the semi-structured interview and life charts. The quasi-quantitative analysis of the data from supporting data collection instruments (life charts and screening instruments) was conducted to produce rich description of the stratified sample. Sample (Participants): Six different groups of informants have been predefined: dependent, remitted, frequent user, frequent ex-users, non-frequent users and non-users. For each of the six groups five interviews were conducted, except dependent users (six interviews) and non-frequent users (four interviews). Results: The results of the quasi-quantitative analysis showed the differences between the user groups. The results suggest that the remitted and dependent users are similar in most of the described aspects compared to other groups. The group of non-frequent users and non-users seem to be different to all the other groups. Furthermore, the results were used to discuss the strengths and limits of different instruments taking into account empirical data. Conclusions: The article introduced the ATTUNE study to the Czech context and showed that the supporting data collection instruments (life charts and screening instruments) are helpful in providing the description of the stratified sample useful for further analysis and that these instruments are also practical for the data collection and allocation of informants.
