Abstract
- The article discusses a study using mixed methods on ensuing selection bias and non-invitation of eligible families in an interview study of the experiences of parents about advance care planning (ACP). Authors of the study examined the differences between not invited and eligible families participating in the study. Results showed the evidence of selective invitation practices that could bias research outcomes.
