Strategies for Successful Recruitment and Retention of Parents in Pediatric Psychosocial eHealth Interventions: A Qualitative Study in Pediatric Oncology.

Abstract

Psychosocial intervention studies with parents often have difficulty with regard to participant recruitment, retention, and engagement. Prior to conducting a pilot test of the Electronic Surviving Cancer Competently Intervention Program (eSCCIP), a psychosocial eHealth intervention for parents of children with cancer, a qualitative study was designed to preemptively generate strategies to address potential difficulties in these domains.
