# Participants | Opinion and verbatim quotes of time spent | Opinion and verbatim quotes of money spent |
---|---|---|
D6, trained, male, 48, manager, college graduate | “Anytime, as long as I learn how to do CPR.” | “I think this (CPR training) should be universal and free to everyone.” |
D16, untrained, female, 46, high school teacher, college graduate | “No matter how long it takes.” | “… I think this (pay for training) is unacceptable.” |
D18, trained, male, 22, college school student | “Maybe half an hour to one hour is enough.” | “It depends on the price. There's a lot of this stuff on the Internet, it should be free, this kind of…like general knowledge education, I think there should be a lot of free instructions. I will not choose courses that actually cost money.” |
D27, untrained, female, 48, engineer, college graduate | “Half a day is OK.” | “I don't accept paid courses.” |
D29, untrained, male, 51, manager, college graduate | “Half a day to 1 day, as long as it doesn't interfere with my work.” | “(long pause) … This (to pay money) seems not too much necessary, I am not a professional.” |
D40, untrained, female, 20, college school student | “Complete in 1 day.” | “No, I can't.” |
D57, untrained, female, 32, sales, high school graduate | “It depends on the content. I'll cooperate when I have time.” | “This is common knowledge, so I don't feel very need to spend money on that.” |
D59, untrained, male, 19, college school student | “No more than 1 h each time. If the teaching is very comprehensive and systematic, I am willing to spend more time.” | “Not quite willing to pay for it.” |
D68, trained, female, 50, teacher, postgraduate | “One day is fine.” | “I don't want to pay.” |
D71, untrained, female, 35, accountant, postgraduate | “If there's an organization to give training, I'd like to take that time. If not, it's hard to pick my own time.” | “I may not accept to spend money. There are medical workers in my family, so I can learn from them.” |
