A questionnaire for a conceptual framework and interdisciplinary public health research using the Delphi technique—development and validation

To address challenges in the development process, interdisciplinary researchers need to be involved. They should consider certain aspects of the development process to provide more structure and clarity, such as comprehensively preprocessing the content, and disentangling and simplifying the theoretical concepts. They should consider a rigorous approach to develop more complex frameworks for interdisciplinary public health topics. Future research should focus on developing methodological guidelines and testing their applicability for different objectives of the Delphi technique (e.g., framework development).
