Research phase Methods and measures Qualitative or quantitative Feasibility area of focusa Feasibility outcomea
Step 3: Systematic braiding: pilot braided curriculum with parents Self-report survey Quant Limited efficacy Pre-post changes in self-reported smoking, smoke-free home rules, and parent stress
Semi-structured qualitative interview Qual Acceptability Satisfaction, appropriateness, intent to continue use
Demand Interest and intent to use
Practicality Ability to carry out intervention activities
Step 4: Systematic braiding: gather feedback from Providers and modify curriculum Semi-structured qualitative interview Qual Implementation Factors that affect ease or difficulty of implementation, fit with SafeCare modules
Practicality Effects on participants, ability to carry out intervention activities
Acceptability Satisfaction, appropriateness, intent to continue use
Demand Perceived demand, interest and intent to use
Brief Provider perceptions survey Quant Implementation Implementation barriers, fit of SFH within SafeCare modules
Acceptability Appropriateness, intent to continue use
Practicality Effects on participants
Demand Intent to use (perception of parents), intent to attend trainings (for Providers)
