Planning and conducting cross-cultural qualitative research: a methodological framework and resources for health researchers.
Review in International journal of qualitative studies on health and well-being, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeThe aim of this review was to develop a methodological framework that could be applied during the design and conduct of cross-cultural qualitative research with people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds in health contexts or settings.
methodsDeveloping the methodological framework in this study consisted of three phases. In Phase 1, a literature review was undertaken to identify relevant evidence by searching bibliographic databases, online sources and relevant journals. In Phase 2, methodological and ethical concepts, issues and considerations were summarized, synthesized and consolidated into a framework. In Phase 3, the methodological framework was refined by applying it to a cross-cultural qualitative study.
resultsThe resulting methodological framework proposes two stages (preparation and action) and eleven key steps for designing, conducting and reporting cross-cultural qualitative research. Other practical resources (i.e. glossary of terms and detailed prompt tool) for health researchers that can be used with the framework are also presented.
conclusionsThis article presents a methodological framework that can guide high-quality cross-cultural qualitative research and is intended for use by health researchers, especially those new to cross-cultural qualitative research. It has the potential to improve the inclusivity and cultural responsiveness of qualitative research.
